Looking for 345-35-18's

[LLVETTE]

I'm running Pilot 345's on the rear and 285's on the front. Michelin apparently is no longer making this size. Anybody tell me who's still making a 345-35-18 or maybe a 345-30-18. I'm running them on a 11.5" Fikse wheel.

I think the Mickey Thompson Drag radial that is due out soon is 345/35 or 30 series. Other than that I don't know of anyone else. Also, I would not go with a 30 series with only a 11.5" wheel, 335 is even pushing it. You might get away with it on a 35 series, but you are definatly getting less contact area than a smaller tire due to sidewall buldge.

Thanks for the response. If I go to a 30 series tire, it will be a 335-30-18. I'll keep looking....

PM'd you. I've got the big 345 pilot sports. the pilot sport cups I also ran 345s. the regular pilot sports may have dropped the 345 size, just learned that. going to 335 nittos to try and hook a bit better.

I'm pretty sure you can get a 335 18 drag radial.
