But how can I live with the fact that my M3 dd has wider stock rears (275) than my 993?

Yeah, but look at the specs. These run a bit wide. You'll like them, I'm sure!

205/55 16 - plenty
225/50 16 - gone
205/45 17 - plenty

These quantities are not guaranteed minute to minute as they are still selling like crazy. Let me know if interested....I'll be in today until 8pm EST.

I don't know. I tried to get 225/265 and it just didn't work out. LoanWolf, did you order after I started this thread?

Bart,

I found out about the sale in this thread: https://rennlist.com/forums/racing-a...hlight=potenza

and jumped on it the same day...the 18s were already pulled from the Tire Rack website and I called Damon who located two more tires in their NJ warehouse. The tires that just shipped yesterday were shipped from Illinois though...

Sorry about not getting yours...have you talked to Damon about locating some more?

I got a call as well telling me that the 255/40-17s I've ordered will not be available and order is cancelled.

I'm not too happy about this. As a matter of fact this is another reason for me to shop at tires.com instead. They've been getting more of my business than TireRack in the past 6-7 years. They simply treat me better. Of the last two orders TireRack sent me a set of race tires that were 2.5 years old (!) and now promised and did not deliver these RE-01s. Does not make me happy.

TireRack, are you listening? Are you feeling me?
