[DeTomaso] 10x15 Wheel Pantera GTS - Marvic Wheels

That is still a great deal at $350/pair, I see that one enterprising person that bought up the Tire Rack deal is reselling on eBay for $750/pair!


Whilst on the subject of tires; Someone on the PI forum recently paid a whopping $1,999 for 2 Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 335/35/17 tires as they are currently impossible to find and were advertised as from "Michelin's last lots of this size tire". From the eBay seller history it looks like 4 other people got suckered at that price too (retail is $560 per tire) as "last lot" in this case is last before the new batch is made!


I have confirmation direct from Michelin the 335/35-17 Sport tire is still offered, albeit dealers are out of stock until a new run is complete and shipped. Michelin said check back in a couple weeks, so if you can wait there is new inventory on the way at some point in the not too distant future.
