For the Super Laps? You still looking to go for an all season, or summer?

I looked for used for a bit. Then just decided to go for federals. Cheap enough I won't worry about camber wear too much, and wide enough to fit better than a 255/35 or too-narrow 235/40.

i might end up just buying some new ones. mine are really tall and hit my front bumper when i turn. how much did you get yours for?

Haven't pulled the trigger yet. Waiting for an er bill to come in :(

Onlinetires.com seems to have the federals in stock, under 100 each for the ss595, 130 each for the 595rs-r. Not the best, but enough good reviews that I figure they're good enough for the street.

Not sure if you're still looking, but I scored a killer deal on Conti DWS 235/35/18 - $88/tire at discount tire. OTD installed with certs was a little over $500. They're 24.5" tall, so .5" shorter than stock.

Not sure why this size is priced so low. Tire rack has them at 90 or so as well. Neither state it's a special price, closeout, etc. The 235/40 was about $150 each.

Check for yourself. http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp

Those tires are awesome. You could run them year round and be happy and safe.

The 235/35/18 are .5" shorter overall diameter than the 255/35/18s I was looking at... But forgot what the stock 225/45/17s are :(

And everytime I load another page on my phone to look, it takes me a couple days to find my way back here :(
