Default Michelin Pilot Sport 2 available again

Checked with Costco and they are now available again. They are 335/35ZR17 in the rear and 275/40ZR17 for the front. This is the combo I have had on mine for a couple of years and very pleased with wet/dry performance and just a real nice ride. Price for the rears are $367.99 and $327.99 for the front. Add $15/tire for install and lifetime balance. Includes road hazard insurance as well.
Every other month they also have a $70 off coupon for a set of 4.
Just another option now available again.

I know this has been asked before, but how is the fitment of the 335 on the stock rear wheel? Does it rub the inner wheel well? Is it too close to the edge of the fender? Does it actually fit the rim properly or should it be on a 12 inch wide wheel?

Thanks for any feedback. Any pictures of how the tire/wheel looks on the car would be appreciated. (Stock sized wheels)

Yes, less running noise and in my opinion better handling.

Traction is outstanding - dry and wet.

They are super wide and look great on the car too.

Joe, I had them on my stock rims on my 90. No issues at all. Liked them much more than the Eagle F1's I replaced them with.
