Default PSS Michelins ordering online....

I'm on Tirerack.com right now....and about to pull the trigger on the Michelin Pilot Super Sports.

I've never ordered tires online but Tireracks says these will fit, just wanted to see if anyone had any input on this before I pull the trigger and have them delivered to my dealer.....I have a 2005 C2S with the stock 19's.

Do these look correct?

You could use 295's on the rear (assuming 11 in rim) if you wanted too. I have 305's on 11.5.

The 295 or the 305 will fit on the back. Go for the 305.

Wasnt Tire Rack a Board Sponsor?

Just installed a set as you listed. I have 15mm spacers at the rear and the 305's fill in nicely. I had to wait more than a month to get the rears due to backorders.

Good luck,
Dave

+1... I had to go with 305's for my 11.5" Champion wheels. My stock Carrera Classic wheels were 11" and took 295's although they should fit 305's as well. I suspect that 305's are more available then 295's and that may be why TR is now defaulting to 305's but they may cost a little more vs. 295's.

Before you order check with them and see if they give discounts to Rennlist members... Doesnt hurt to try to save a few $$$

Tire Rack does not discount, price match, nor give special pricing to Rennlisters.

That sizing is correct. We are a straight price shop and give our best price up front. Please give me a call if I can help you get an order in. Thanks.

I heard that discount tire direct price matches and does not charge shipping.

I ordered mine from tire rack and shipped to the dealer for mounting and balance as well. Works great.

I have tires shipped to me indy for install as I don't think my local dealer will be very happy about being cut out of the tire sale

+1... my pdealer only charged $20-$30 more than the local tire installer. Well worth it.
