Thats going to be tough, let me know what you find, from what i gather they are going to a sportcontact 3 and the 2's are fading out fast.

The 3 is just starting to come out in Europe now, with nothing released from Conti on US release dates. The SC2 in that size just doesn't have a production schedule set up for their next run of them. We have plenty of them on order and are waiting for them as well.

Reminds me when we were hostage to unavailability of the Contis and the Yokos in the 19's in early tt days. Wow those were going for $$ back then
Not to mention the mpsc shortage last year!

Hey guys,

TechArt advises following:

Michelin PS2

245/30/20
325/25/20

or CSC II

235/30/20
305/25/20

If there are no tires available CEC can import them from us (TechArt Germany)!
