The Michelin 335’s needs a rim in the range of 11-13” according to Michelin. They are available at Discount Tire Direct for $372.99 each with free shipping and if you buy 4 Michelin’s there is a mail in rebate of $17.50 each. Net price is $355.49. Sam’s club has them as a special order for $406 each and Tire Rack has them for $385.15 plus shipping costs of $17.35 (dependent on your zip code) for a net total of $402.05

Did you talk to them? Discount Direct website says out of stock and tire rack.com doesn't show Michelin 335 30 18.

Never mind. This is for 335 35 17.

I can report that the Nitto 555 G2s are significantly better in the rain. Where my 555s would start to 'float" much above 48mph when sheeting (est. 1/4" to 1cm or 3/8"), where the "G2s" continued to grip perhaps 10 to 15 mph beyond the point the 555s dared to go.

This is anecdotal for sure, but my personal observations while driving in heavy rain while riding on 555s following Robert DeMarco's GS riding on "G2s". My next set of front tires will be the "G2s". (555r on the rear).

Paul, are you saying the Nitto 555 compared to Nitto 555 G2?

Took my 90 in to Discount Friday as right rear tire was losing air. (Michelin) There were bubbles in both rears due to age. Bought in 2013 but mfr. date was 09. Thanks jss06c6 for pointing out. They are replacing free of charge but have to come from NC. Guy seemed very nervous about age of tire they installed. They actually put 2 brand new Goodyears on until new ones arrived. He didn't want me even driving home 7 miles on them. Anyone else had this problem? Will definitely check dates when installed. But I guess they are back in production.

My Continentals are date coded 2717. But, these tires are brand new to the market.
Figures, sounds like I missed the PS2's by about a week.
However, the continentals ended up at $215 each, mounted, road force balanced and disposal of the old ones.
I ran PS2's and really liked them.
