Where did you pick up the V12s any good deals out there? I use my Delaer to mount, they have a nice no touch machine and the roadforce balancer

I looked for Michelin Super Sports, and unfortunately they aren't made in the 295 width required for the C4S. Looks like I'll probably go with PS2s...

I have been very happy with these tires. I have had them for a year with about 8k miles.

But I like them. I purchased my 02 Carrera in Omaha and drove home to Virginia Beach. The car had the new Hankooks. I sold the rims and tires replacing with GT3 wheels and bought the same tires for these wheels. Little noise and very comfortable for half the price of the Michelin.
