Default I've got mail!

Tire Rack is FAST! I ordered on the 19th and they came today, the 25th all the way to P.R. Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 265/35/19 and 235/40/18. They are one size larger and I hope a spacer won't be needed on the front but I have some 5 mm spacers on the way just in case. Phone pictures are not the best but they're better than nothing.

These tire sizes will fit just fine. No spacers required. Enjoy.

I got the tires mounted and on the car today. I had only 2 mm clearance with the upper control arm bolt. So I put some H&R 5 mm spacers on that I got for a good price from a forum member and I'll bet you can guess how the drive home was. Yup, the front shook all the way home. I guess I have to get myself some 10 mm hub centric spacers or shimmy down the road. Tomorrow I'm taking the spacers off to see if the shimmy goes away. While I have the spacers off I'll take some corners at high G's to see if it rubs or not. If it rubs I'll get the 10 mm hub centric spacers and hopefully not have problems with fender clearance. It seems the 235 Pilot Sport Cups run a little big.
