I need tires

Hi everybody!
I need a specific tire size that I can't fin anywhere. Does one of you still a a pair or more of them ? I'll pay all shipping charges of course. Payment could be made by my verified premier PayPal account or MasterCard or VISA.

The tire size I'm searching for is 275 / 50 R16

Thanks in advance,

Mario

PS: They should have at least 3-4mm profile and no scratches etc.

Hi 92heritageRS!
Thanks for your posting.

I was at nittotire.com but I can't find that size. Do you know the name/model of the tire available in this size and/or a dealer who sells it ?

Thanks in advance,
Mario

sorry for the mix up they have 275/50-17s I can't find the 16's eather. Good luck have you had this size before? What is your rim width? Is your car lowered? Sorry for the mix up!

No problem...
We have to get any change on our cars inspected and "legalized" here in Germany and that isn't easy at all (and also costs a lot of money). On my car this tire size is already legalized on the 8x16 stock rims and that's why I'd pay nearly any price for a couple...

...but BF Goodrich doesn't offer this size any more (it is the only company which I know who had this tire in their products)...

My car isn't lowered at the moment but I'm thinking of buying (and installing) those EIBACH pro kit...but first of all I've got to get bigger tires. At the moment I only have 245/50 16 and in the back they look like there is something missing ;-)

If I can't find those tire size I'll try to get 8,5x18 rims & tires (see my other posting in the suspension section).

Thanks,
Mario

PS: On my 91RS Camaro I have 245/50 14 on a 7x15 wheel in the front and 265/50 15 on a 8x15 wheel in the back...and you !?
