Default Who offers 335, 345 ties for 17" wheels?

I'm shopping for tires and considering larger sizes (for looks). Also hoping to find reasonably priced tires.

Thus far I haven't had much luck via internet searches, probably because people use different syntax for stating sizes, and there's the aspect ratio variable, too (30, 35, 40) .

After I find out what's available, I plan to ask Robert if he can get a good deal for the brands/models. http://zr1.net/forum/showpost.php?p=221738&postcount=5

Thanks in advance.

Hi Russ-
Michelin offers a 335/30-ZR17 for the rears and the stock size for the fronts. Pilot Sports. I got mine at Costco last year. Not inexpensive but Costco was the best price I found nearby to do everything, $1,712 for the set installed and balanced. They did not have them in stock but were able to get them in a couple of days. And as I recall they did not show up on the Costco website so I ordered them at the store. They can get any Michelins that are available.--Bob

Michelins - Have 335's on mine. Fits stock rim. Pricey but worth every nickle

I also run the Michelin Pilot Sport's. Will need new tires next year. Currently the Eagle F1's are cheaper than the PS2's

I did the same, ordered at Costco. Michelin sent the tires 3 times, two times Costco rejected them due to date stamp being 3 years old. Michelin then sent a fresh set. Also road hazard insurance is included at no extra cost.

We did/do/may still have/ a deal on tires. Let me see if I can figure out how to take advantage...I think you need to PM Robert DeMarko
