Thumbs down

Wilber, I just spoke to them on Friday and they told me that they don't carry that size. "Import only" is what the dude told me. I'll try again tomorrow.

when you call Globe Tires ask for Mike MacFarland.
He can help you.

Is this the new "correct" size for the 996TT? I remember hearing that others used a 275 or 285 tire which was too big because Yokohama didnt make the correct diameter for the car in a 19" fitment

Hey guys,

Some of us are arranging a group buy on these Yokohama AVS tires in 315/25/19.

Please PM if you are interested. We need 5 sets to make it worthwhile, meaning 10 tires.

Should take less than a week to get them once we place the order.

Hey guys...

The price for the AVS tires will be $550 per tire delivered to your door. This includes taxes, duty, air freight, etc.

From what I heard, Heinz at Gemballa were selling these tires for $1000 each, and By Design was selling for $650 each, assuming that they could get their hands on them.
