Default August special from GT Racing Tires

August special

Pirelli slicks in D2 compound. Get six tires for $525.00 Buy four fronts and two rears, all one size, however you would like to split them.

The sizes we have in stock are:

285/645/18
305/660/18
305/675/18
305/685/18

These are hands down the fastest tire we have. All will have only one heat cycle and 75% or better rubber remaining.

We also have many other brands and sizes in stock.

BLOW OUT: Pirelli wets in 305/660/18 and 305/675/18. I don't think these were ever mounted. $75.00 per tire.

Todd,

What is the equivalent side wall profile size for the 285/645/18?

40?

Thanks, Mike

645 is 649.7mm diameter inflated, which about a 31% sidewall for a 305mm wide tire. Roughly a 305mm/30%/18in tire. That sound correct?

If that is correct, I am interested in a set too.

Thats a pretty rare size, I didn't know Yokohama even made that size. Their common size is 280/680-18, which is the rear on the Patron Cup Porsches; the orange oil tire which wears like iron.

It used to be very common actually, but sizes have changed the last few years and pro teams started using different sizes, so its hard to find them now in scrub form. They can still be bought new, common for BMW's and some other apps.
