no tire rack is where I recommend buying the tires, and then they have a list on their website of installers they recommend. Obviously this is just my opinion, you could always go to a local tire shop in your area and see if they can work out a deal with you.

WangTa, Tire Rack sells tires online or by phone and delivers them. We only install tires at our headquarters in Indiana. So we provide a list of installers who have agreed in advance to install tires for Tire Rack customers. Hope that clears up any confusion.

Ben,
Any idea how soon the 265/40/18's will be in? I'm ready for a full set (front & rear) in the very near future! Fronts you have in stock... Thanks,

I'm going to be the sole dissenter here. I like the way the car rides and handles on PS2's better.
I have a stock M3 sedan with approximately -1.5 negative camber all around and 1/16th toe in front. PSS on RAC Monolites 18" 245/40R18 front 265/40R18 rear PS2 on OEM 18" with OEM sizes, 245/40R18 front 265/40R18 rear PSS: More grip wet and dry Longer wear (looks like it's going to last 20-30% longer) Car feels "bound up." Requires about 75% throttle to break the car loose in 2nd gear turns. Harsher impacts on broken pavement and potholes. PS2: Less grip wet and dry Faster wear Car is more neutral and breaks away with about 50% throttle in 2nd gear turns. Smoother ride with less crashing noises over bumps. I think the PSS may be a better for people with stiffer (aftermarket or ZCP) suspension. To me, the PSS is a bit too grippy for the shocks/springs on a standard, stock M3 causing additional body roll. The car is more playful on PS2's, IMO. The difference is not huge but I will probably burn up my PS2's before I go back to the PSS's (I have several sets of wheels/tires in the garage). For the money, I'd probably go with the PSS's since the OEM PS2's are ridiculously priced. Last edited by smmmurf; 02-26-2012 at 01:22 AM.. |

I love my Super Sports and have no regrets. Tire Rack was great to work with on this set and they arrived quickly.
