I need tires!

Hey guys, any idea where I can get a couple Conti 2's in size 305 25 20? Peter Lee (as Always!) has come through with wheels but I understand that these tires are a bit hard to find right now. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Brian - I appreciate it!

Marc,

Let me see if that will work - they are for a friend that just bought an SL500 and she wants her wheels

20" for SL500? That'll be a bumpy ride, not to mention poor handling/braking/acceleration.

Talk to Wheel Enhancement (www.wheelenhancement.com). They have been great with me in the past. They had several sizes in stock, or can order them for you.
