Default Desperately Seeking NT01 305R18

Respecting that I can just post on parts marketplace, I have used up my NT01's and need a pair for the rear. Every tire store that typically carry these are out of stock. If anyone knows where I can source a couple, I would be grateful for the help.

OP, check your PM box. Mooty has helped me and many others in the past.

It's a sad day if you cant find a fellow enthusiast to help you out without trying to gouge or make a profit off of you.

Karma...

So then just don't post. Or say you'd rather not sell. Amazing how easy that was huh?

Crazy how many times fellow members have gone out of the way for me. I'd like to consider this forum a special group. Your post reeked of cheese. I'm talking Brie here....

Emtell grab USc ra1. 315 will do funny things to abs on rear. But that is a great deal from fritz. They are too low and messes with rake. The ra1 are old tires but grip ok I think they are shaved. I have a set I'm using up at my next event. They have like 2 days left on them. Figure about 85% of nt01 grip but easy to drive and gradual break away. Lots of guys were running these late last year when last nt01 shortage. I don't think mooty has any more nt01 I got his last rear set I think. All mine are mounted up already.

315/30 is too short and will mess up rake and PASM and ABS. Gotta stock up on these when they are available guys. I bought 5 sets after the last drought.

Killer deal though for sure

Is this specific to 7gt3? I've used 245/40 + 315/30 on my 6gt3 with no problems whatsoever.

996 yes! 997 not the best. Needs a meaty rear for the rake
