Tires for Shelby Series 1
 

Having serious issues sourcing tires. Running 335/30s and 275/35s. Michelin doesnt make that size any more and Perreli are all on BO. What are you Series 1 guys running now?

I am still running the Goodyears but they are becoming hard to find these days as well.

According to BFG this tire is not available in a 335/30/18.

Re: Tires for Shelby Series 1?s
 

If they actually said it then it must be discontinued. It shows up on their website right now and I have them on my car. But I did buy mine about 3 years ago.

I just bought some 2 week's ago

Google it there are some out there,fronts are slim right now

Re: Tires for Shelby Series 1?s
 

Slim picking at this time. I have Toyo's on the shelbys I bought from viper107 and love them. I tried to order another set for my 18x10/18x12 fikses but no dice. Discount actually called me after I ordered and said they can't get anything in a 335/30 18 (and then cancelled my order). They said toyo has no estimated production date, a statement verified by tirerack. I've got a set of continentals on order for tire rack as of now. They are supposed to ship next week.

Damn. Some dismal news even for 18? wheels in our sizes. I switched to 18? due to the small selection of choices and now it seems the be the same with plus 1 application. [emoji22]

Yeah, this is ridiculous. Looks like I?m just going to have to get anything I can right now.

Re: Tires for Shelby Series 1?s
 

So, it looks like the BFG is on BO (rears) as are the Toyo 888's. They are still making them but DCT doesn't have a date they will be available. I can get the Pirelli's in about a week but the fronts will be P Zero Assymetrico's and the rear will be P Zero's. The tread pattern is the same but the ASM have a little stiffer outside wall if I'm understanding correctly. I never mix tires but this may work if the tread pattern is the same.

Thinking about ordering the Continental Extreme Contact but it's a summer tire and I don't want to think about the temp outside if I want to drive my car.

Still looking...

Re: Tires for Shelby Series 1?s
 

I ordered a set of Fiske's in shelby sizes months ago and have had the same problem with tires. I have 888s on my shelby wheels, but the 335 is just unattainable right now. I ordered the Continental's from Tire Rack a few weeks ago and received them Monday. They had originally said they wouldn't ship until January; I was pleasantly surprised!

Nearly every tire in these sizes is a summer or race tire.

Re: Tires for Shelby Series 1?s
 

UPDATE: I went ahead with the Toyo 888s as nothing else was available. OMG, these are the stickiest tires I have ever owned. They have outrageous cornering capability. Beyond what I am willing to test on the street at this stage of my life. With a tread rating of 100 I don't expect them to last long but the second I put them on all my vibration issues went away so I really don't care. Now, I can start looking for a more permanent solution in more of a HP touring tire.

I do not know if better or worse 8 months later. I changed to 18s with hopes of better options, but now it seems more options for the 17s. I ended up just going with Nitto NT555G2 front (275/35) and NT555RII rear (335/30). Others were either back ordered or ridiculous cost (Pirellis and mismatch) or wait for shipping by surface mail with TireRack for Continental. I ordered through Jegs with Racer Discount and $100 savings with special and free shipping $1,190.
