Default Check out the new BFG Rival 315-35-17

New tire from BFG, it's called the Rival. It's on the BFG web site and says its available from the Tire Rack, but I did not see it. Probably will be available soon.

I have these on a Camaro... great tire... not great tread life... but that isn't the point of this kind of tire. I will be buying a set soon.

Found it on their website, but they don't have a front that fits. They have a 275/40 would there be an issue running these?

because I thought they were 45's in the front? I've never been able to remember the stock fronts with 100% confidence

Looks like a grooved version of the 008. Liked those for track days with the 911. Great to have more choices.

That was the original size for the front tires.
