Great deal! However, These MPSS/SC2's are not the bespoke MPSS for the GT350.

At these prices, that's OK for me.

I have never heard a specific description of exactly what is bespoke about these. It could be a trivial marketing thing, or something material. Has anyone heard these details? :shrug:

Everyone is entitles to their opinion and I am solely basing it off credible sources. AHving said that, did you all read the descriptions? The specs do not match the tire advertised. Cross reference the part number.

I'm not sure anyone is questioning opinions. We are merely wondering if someone can explain specifically the differences and benefits of the bespoke version. If the benefits are very minimal, the cost savings may justify the diminished performance.

The differences as I have been told is in rubber compound and tread pattern specifically engineered for the car ala, GT350/R. I know for a fact that the SC2's on a GT3 are not the same as the R. Saw the physical differences with my own eyes. When someone like Billy Johnson says buy the bespoke tire, I buy the Bespoke tire. Additionally, I am pretty sure most will not notice a difference. But when I am on the track, I need all the help I can get...so tires matter.

Back to the link, the tire description does not match the tire advertised, The sizes are not the same nor is the performance of the tire, ALL SEASON vs SUMMER or STREET/COMPETITION for the SC2's

Yes, and it will be Walmart's problem to resolve in the event that they do not ship the tire I bought based on the title of the ad and the savings listed in the same ad. The information I used to make my purchase is front and center on the ad along with the "Add to Cart" button. Even the hyperlink text contains the tire size, so the reasonable assumption is that the description is wrong.

Anyway, that will be my argument. :D

Lol. They prolly have orders for 10x the number of tires in stock. This should be interesting. Ordered several sets of Cup 2 for track practice and street.
Now how bout the NT-01 18” pricing....

More than just covered. Preferably in a temperature controlled environment. Any extreme temperature changes and the tire degrade substantially and why the have production dates.
