The question i have is will the tires be available in the future?
I heard from somewhere(i cant remember where)that Yokohama is only doing one more batch of 285/40/15 and that is it.
Talked to a rep awhile ago from Coker Tire(the ones who sell the TB15)and he said they will not be making anymore of the TB5 or TB15's and what they have in the warehouse is it.
I do not know how accurate the person was at Coker or if the Yokohama story was true either,but it does point out a vulnerability of getting street tires with the GT4,GT5 or GT5-S wheels.At least the fronts as the rears are more popular.
Its a shame as i think they are the best looking wheels,and i would love a set on my flared car,but i will not risk spending $6500 or so on wheels i cannot use on the street.I use 18's on the street and 15 inch Basset wheels on the track(when i get to the track,which has not happened in a while,sigh)
