Sumitimo are all season tires and will put you in the weeds. Tread pattern is not directional from one side to the other. The Goodyears are the best for summer driving or hot climates. They will put you in the weeds in cold weather, but are the best performance in wet and dry high speed driving.

I put Michelin Super Sports on my 2010 ZR1 and I've had them on other Sport/Muscle cars with great success. Expensive but great traction, quite and good feel in the corners.

Nitto NT555g2

Good dry traction and you can drive sanely in the rain. Put something decent on the car for a reasonable cost, the new owner will appreciate it. Sumitomos are garbagio, stock car, dry roads, they break traction on the 1-2 shift.

Michelin Pilots are the best in my opinion. They were on our 1995 Z when we bought it and we have just replaced the back tires. Drove through some torrential rain during drive home from BG this year and car behaved like it was on rails. Amazing tire. If you check Dredgeguys post on Michelin Pilots they are available at Costco in the U.S.

Not on OEM wheels, though.
