I've heard rumors of bridgestone offering the re-71r's in wider "corvette" sizes. Does anyone have info on this? I'd love to get some 315-30-18 and 335 or 345-30-18's.

Any info would be fantastic!

Post 10 has the info you need, nothing that wide unfortunately

305 in August is the rumor I've heard.

305/30 18 ?

AUTO_X_AL

Possibly 18. 19 likely

Called TireRack today and no larger than 285/30-18 for 18" for this year.

Yea, that 305 is a 305/19.

Have you seen availability on the 305 yet?

August 1st 305/30/19 is the target date...

I wish it were sooner. Looks like 285's this year.

Are we still looking at 4/1 for 285/30/18?

I'm not 100% sure but I thought I heard that the entire first shipment of 285's has already been pre-ordered?

Just like last year with the 275, if you want to get the new widest tire sooner than later you should call tirerack and place an order to get your name on the list and your order in the queue otherwise you'll wind up waiting 2-3 shipments before they actually become in stock.

Yeah I put in a pre-order with tire rack about 6 or 7 weeks ago, so hopefully I should get one of the first sets
