Hard to find tire sizes?

Anyone here having difficulty finding tire sizes like 335/30/18, 345/35/19, 305/25/20, etc? Im trying to compile a list of all the tire sizes difficult or impossible to find. So anything for your Ferrari, Lambo, Porsche, Maserati, etc... that you have a hard time finding or you cant find at all, please list it here.

Well help me out! Give me say... 5 or so sizes you get asked about pretty frequently that are on back order, or just impossible to find.

Just wrecked one of my P Zero Rosso 305/25/19's.

Can't find them anywhere. Not the Assymmetrico..just the plain jane Rosso

If I can't find one (or two) I'll have to get 4 new tires.

Anybody have these??????

Dynamic, I can't respond to PM's yet -- I need to get my post count up. In any case here is the size listing from one company that hasn't updated their size chart for the now discontinued 305/25/19.

You might be better off with a 295/30/19, and replace both rears.

I have a nail in my tire and it is leaking and no one will patch it because it is too close to the sidewall. I need a Pilot PS2 265-35-19 N1 tire for my Cayman S. Does anyone know somewhere that has this tire? I talked to Tire Rack, NTB, Discount Tire and my local Porsche dealers. Any suggestions?

If sidewall is damaged you cannot repair it.

You can go to a 275-35-19 which will barely affect your speedo. You'll be showing 60.0 mph but will actually be 60.6 MPH.

Those should be more available.

Buy two and put on the rear, and then you'll improve your handling.
