[DeTomaso] 335 -35-17 Tires

[Steve Hawkins]

Good luck finding 335-35's, that's what I had on mine but couldn't find any
replacements so I went with the 315's.  They're still plenty big on my 17X11
inch wheels.

Good Morning All,

I have decided that Santa will be giving #1660 new shoes for Christmas.

I currently have Michelin Pilot Sports on the car, they have served well for
several years and due what can only be described as a weight problem with my
right foot, seem to have worn down to  the wear bars, making them very
unsafe in the event it is ever caught out in a sudden downpour ( as is
common here in the summer months ).

Any feedback on suitable tires would be appreciated, I would consider 315 if
they were just freaking spectacular, otherwise, I love the wide look of 335
from behind the car.

One or two track days per year, not esp hard use, lots of street driving (
relatively speaking ) and a couple of trips to the mountains where road
holding and grip are most important.  I don't care a great deal about wear
ratings except that I don't want to pay for tires that won't last 5K miles,
they should heat easily, be attractive and a cool but functional tread
design would be a bonus.

Thanks,

Michael Shortt
