Hi Clarence! OWG (Old White Guy) here again. Man, I love your vids, you tell it EXACTLY like it is is...undiluted. I see lots of haters diss’n you for how you talk, but just ignore them as the gentleman I know you are. That’s just YOU, Buddy, your personality. Don’t change anything and stay who you are. On the tires, one thing I learned long ago is factory tire mfg’s inflation pressures are GROSSLY misguided. They tell us to keep tires at a certain psi PURPOSELY to cause greater tire tread wear. A factory rep told me years ago if I want to get the actual tire life (30-40,000, etc) outta my tires, over inflate them by about 10-20% of factory rec’s. That has worked for me for DECADES now. Plus the non-track alignment of course. Again, really love your content. Pls keep doing what you do. Sincerely,
I have been telling you for the longest! It's All about the Alignment!! You have to get them to as close to Zero as possible. From the factory they are set up for the track. Setting them to close to Zero will get you Even Wear!! Get an Alignment Sir!! General Lee Out!

It has been known for several years the tires on C7 Z06 & GrandSport start showing chord early. They are set up for the track 1.2G. Many of us have had our cars dropped down to the Stingray alignment spec to get better tire wear. Even on the Tail of the Dragon I only pulled a .95G with traction control management flashing on the PDR recording. It is your money and that caster adjustment is important.

Hey Clarence glad to see you do some more c7 video. Please get a four wheel alignment. Have tech to zero your alignment do wheels will wear evenly. The come from the factory toed in for track use. I’ve already changed mine out a few weeks ago for the same thing.
Hi Clarence, I had the same tire tread wear as you did. There was a guy who had a blog a year or two ago. He had a blow out. What he found was the camber on the Z06 and Grand Sport have to in camber on l 4 corners increases track performance, but wear out the tires. Since I don't track it anymore, I replaced the tires with Michelin All season tires. I also had the camber set close to zero. Tires are expensive. Plus I wanted to be able drive on nice days in the winter. By the way. When are you going to put full wing doors on the C8? That would look nice. Congrats on neatly 30 K miles. Have a good day. Stay safe and enjoy the road.
Clarence, I'm so happy that you kept your C7 Corvette GS. Beautiful car. Glad to hear there's more C7 content coming.

I did already subscribe and I always give a thumbs up. I see your C8, right now and just heard the shout out. Like you, by the way, I have a high wing spoiler. Unlike you, although I paid for it as the build reflects, when I asked the dealer for my Z51 spoiler and was told that I don't get it. I saw that Corvette Mike got his regular wheels, when the Tridents were optioned as the wheels come with the car. I asked for those too. I was told that I don't get those either. Then the window sticker shows that the carbon flash painted sill accents and front are an extra that i paid for extra according to the sticker. Then, it turned out that the dealership had one set of carbon fiber ground effects, so I ordered that, since it is so rare and had them install the visible actual carbon fiber ground effects kit. The upshot is that the dealer did give me that back. Two upgrades, one over the other. Not the smartest choice, but then to get a hold of the hard to get ground effects kit at the dealer and have them dealer installed before I left the dealer parking lot and before I took delivery. Congrats on the new tires. Yes, I compliment you for having the courage to obtain the Continental Extreme Sport Constacts. Alex
Wow that different. If you tracked the car the outside would where out. Looks like you need an all wheel alignment. Nice to give your C7 some attention.

Wow! You did have the angles hooked up. Can they do a "corner balance" by shifting weight with the alignment so that the weight on each wheel is fairly even on all four wheel/tires combination? Thanks. There's a huge learning curve on your favorite cars. Once the car becomes part of you, etc., then it becomes more comfortable to you personally...at that point it becomes part of your signature. AF
Hey Clarence:: great C7 video! As so many posters say, get that camber to zero and your tires will give you 30k. What about those wheels? And scissor doors! Awesome! More C7 content please. A true supercar!

Thank you so much for watching I appreciate your support. How are you?
Your C7 is a beauty as well. Also, your taste in selecting the color and the interior color is really awesome. You have great taste. You create a good example of C8 ownership and enthusiasm with a great element of common sense thrown into the package. That's why your content is so positive at these time where it looks like we may have flattened the curve a a nation on the C-19. By the way, Clarence, here's an easy riddle for you: Why did the Engineers choose 8 Speeds for the mid-engine Corvette with their Dual Clutch Transmission, instead of 7, 9, or 10 speeds? The answer, (drum roll, please...................C8! (Yes, Alex and clarence, 8 Speeds for the C8. -- AF
Two items: What, Clarence, is your opinion on the scissors Doors for the C8? I think the beginning of this content showed a photo of a C7 with scissors doors? I think with parallel parking it is quite likely that the long doors will be difficult to exit through the stock position. Seems cool that one can just swap out hing hardware to obtain this access. The question is, how is the scissor doors with regard to being practical for getting in and out, versus the standard GM build of the car? 2nd Question: What do you think of Kooks headers for the C8? Is better than 20 horsepower a realistic gain? I sent Kooks a question regarding their headers and the adaptor clamps to obtain some clarifications and after more than several days, there's been no response from Kooks. AF

Inside wear, camber adjustment. Factory settings won’t cut it. I get mine adjusted at McClaren - just do to the machine on hand. Contis are softer ride, but the runflat benefit is 4 me - got them for same price as Contis.
Your C7 is awesome ! I’d love to buy yours from you as it is and maybe start a Channel with it! I know I’m young but I think I could pull it off and I work hard and save great! Would be a great opportunity! Thanks for the awesome video again by the way your a inspiration

CGS252! Loving the channel! What are the exact specs of those wheels? Offset, size, make, model!?? I need to know!🔥🔥🔥
You actually can fix it. You need to have them align it like a C7 stingray. I did this on my almost 800hp grand sport and I've never had tire wear issues. The Grand sport and zo6 have negative camber for the track. Change that and you wont have the issues. I don't track my care so there's no need to have it alignment like that.
@cgarnerspeed252
4 ай бұрын
That make perfect sense
Check your alignment, if it is within the factory marks. Have them check droop or ride height which requires the car on the alignment machine, use body weight to pull down the car and see if positive camber is above 10 the car weight droop. There is a guy that has a rear height correction if you are interested. But that is only if you exceed to much droop under factory settings.
So did he adjust the alignment or was it good to go and the tires just made to ride and wear they way old set did?

Wheels and tires look sharp! Corvette Strong 💪
I went through the same thing on my C6 GS!
I'm glad you still got the C7.a blower should be added for the C7 for alittle extra kick in powah
Perhaps that alignment anticipates hard cornering which you would expect to wear on the outside heavily?
I am running the Extreme Contact tires on my Mustang... and am Very Pleased with them. 305x18 rear and 255x17 front.
The C7 looking good that's a lot of money man I would only drive my car once a week LOL

Change the alignment specs to save the tires man, of course factory specs are not going to say any different. Just set the camber to Stingray specs and tire will be fine. All your going to loose is a little speed on the track.
Brah, how about, sale the C7 and get the last naturally aspirated ferrari 458 2011 to 2013. Then you could do comparison videos... between it and the C8. That would be lit.

CGarnerSpeed252 I’m stuck on code 3000 , but when I do get mine hopefully, I will definitely get the lambo door
💥💥It's because the stock camber is set aggressively for going through turns on grand sport and z06. Every Zo6 and GS will have the same wear pattern. You can actually just have them adjust it but you'll lose cornering confidence... but with zero degree camber... it'll handle like 💩🤓💥💥
That's normal. It's called camber wear. High-performance cars do not wear evenly. I would recommend you invest in a good set of all-season quality tires, and stop burning out. It looks good, but you're only wearing out your tires prematurely.
Clarence, not to nitpick, it's tread and not thread. 👍🏾
Dude, you have to go a shop that will do the align correctly.. all he did was verify what the factory sent out the door with caster way off.. I hate seeing a tech give bogus info.. obviously your camber is off as well..
