FYI

TR is not the only source for RS3's

Hankook Motorsports dealers can get them too.

 

I heard these tires wear really fast.

 

Meh, mine have 3K miles and still have the flames on them.

 

Tirerack disresprect my famiry.

 

There is a thread on m.net regarding this size RS3 is getting difficult to find. Anyone seeing this, or is it just tr that's out of them?

 

which one of those has them for less than tireracks prices?

 

I was looking around yesterday, tirerack and tires.com didn't have them in stock.

they are special order.

 

They were'nt in stock anywhere when I was looking which is the primary reason I went with the R1R's

 

Performance Tires Online | Treadzone.com Tire Specialists

Great service and fast shipping

 

+$500 plus shipping for tires sucks ***.

they had my rs3s in stock when I ordered them....got them like 2 days later...but they are about $10/tire more than Tirerack...but they have them in stock

 

Discounttiredirect.com is always good. They didn't have my 225 RS3's in stock though. It's a hot tire right now....it even has phlames in the tread.

 

I bought my RS3's from Treadzone and while the tires were slightly more, the shipping was slightly less than TR... ended up being nearly a wash and TZ had them in stock as you said.

 

With only a couple options in 225/45/15 and the RS3's selling out you'd think another company might jump in the game. I'd love for Nitto to do the Neo Gen in that size for a cheap option.

 

Then I could run dem 9's on tha street, son.

 

Seriously ijust did a quick search and there's nothing but nitos or rs3, any suggestions for 9s

 

How tall would 225/50/15s be??? Only $57 each

Store

 

Here's a couple pics of the height difference between 205/50-15s and 225/50-15s... it's fairly major.



You can see clearly how much the car leans with 225/50 on one side and 205/50 on the other. Clearance was super tight between the tire and front bumper as well with the 225/50s.

 

On an NB at stock ride height, maybe. lowered NA, no way.
