2 pairs of Yokohama W.drive winter performance tires on the way. It's debatable whether I really need winter tires rather than all-seasons, but on the few occasions that I have had to deal with snow the past couple winters, the all-seasons have been marginal. So, I'll try winters again.

Great timing! Thanks for the coupon code. definitely looking to replace my POS falken ziex tires. Nasty camber wear and a nail. they're done lol. Going to upgrade to the mich. supersports!!

The only decision now is to keep stock tire on all four or run 275/40/18 in the rear? Anyone have experience with that setup? Did it help traction or handling? Fitment good? Or is that just wasting money?

don't expect the PSS to last longer or wear better than what you had.

$540 for 4 Hankook Ventus V12 Evo2 255/45/r18 to my door. Can't beat that deal.

Or $596 to get 275 in rear...hmmm...

I just replaced a set of 255/45 tires with factory size after I lowered my car. I was getting some minor rubbing up front when pushing the car hard - but was afraid it could add up over the course of a few years. I really liked the 255/45 though.

I don't expect much from tread life or wear. But im expecting greatly improved grip and traction. I guess the PSS isn't even offered in 270/40/18 anyways.

Damn...Maybe I'll stick with the 245 up front for now then until I get a chance or time to roll my fenders.

Will having a total 70mm tread width difference make this thing an understeering pig? I enjoy kicking the rear out hopping onto on ramps but definitely want some more rear end traction in the straights.

Just received my Eastwood in the mail, going to roll front fenders this weekend.

Hopefully this will allow for 255 tires with ease.

295? Not on stock wheels I assume? Stock trailing arms?
