Tire Insanity
:crazy:
The Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3 in the 255/40/17 size (along with other C5 coupe sizes) is on indefinite back-order. They state it may take up to 2 months before they see them here in the USA. They do not even have a production date! :cry
So, I need some input on what second tire option to buy. I can't find a set of tires in the following sizes : 255/40/17 & 285/35/18
Need help! :(

Re: Tire Insanity (pettrix)
How do you intend to use the tires? Street only, maybe snow use, drag, autocross?
There is Scottsdale for street only, try the Michelin Pilot Sports. Very good road use and you'll love how quiet they are, particularly on the 101, 202, etc., that has that new asphault material Arizona is using. Plus, if you take the occasional run to Flagstaff during the winter, the Michelin's actually have a snow rating!
Hope this helps.
