Tires

[John 9]

Good day
I know that the c8 z06 are super sticky and pick up all rocks.
However is it normal that rock are leaving dents in the rubber of the tire? Will these dents fix themselves maybe with the heat of the tire driving? Thank you

Tires are very resilient, I seriously doubt they will take on any kind of imperfection because of stones. They are made for the road and not the track persay. Tires made for the track like slicks could, but not street tires.

On my ZL1, the Eagle F1 Supercar tires kicked up all pebbles in our alley, and yes, they did leave little "dents" in the tread after returning from a drive in a hot day. I'm pretty sure they went back to normal after the next hot ride.

That’s what I was hoping for , a ride in the sun will help .

Those don't look like dents to me. More like chunks. Aggressive driving in my Camaro and the Goodyear Eagles would lose "chunks", but way worse than that. Anyway, I'm surprised,
