285 40 15 tires

if anyone is looking for these tires as I have been, they do exist. in Europe. Yokohama makes them in limited runs. not to pimp another website but you can get them at Parts for Matra Murena, Bagheera, Rancho, M530, Talbot N9 about 1000.00 for 2 shipped to United States. and they are brand new allegedly??? I will let you know if I have any issues.

Its cheaper to buy the wheels that have a decent selection of tires.

I would go with the 295/40/15 Michelin TB15's you can get from Summit Racing. They are quite a bit lighter than the Yokos.

I like the BBS wheels I have... and being that I don't drive it much I will be only replacing due to age rather than wear. I like the coker but I have barely any room to spare. after I install the yokos I will see how much extra room but by my measurements I will have maybe a 1/4 to 3/8 to spare. I will see.
