Ordered MPSS thru Discount Tire and they just called with the great news that the rear 305’s for the silver badges are unavailable with no known eta. Great! They have the cup 2’s, but it rains here frequently and I daily the car. Anyone have a source?

I’m not categorically opposed to the cups, but I’d rather not. If I do have to go that route, just HOW sketchy are they in the wet?

Thanks for any help.

This isn't the first I've heard this...makes me want to try and find a set even though I've still got around 30-40% tread left.

edit: also, nice color :thumbsup:

Yeah that’s where I ordered them from, paid, and scheduled an install. They just called to tell me the rears are a no-go.
this is from tirerack.com

Yeah, they are the Ruby Red of the blue cars IMO. The flake in the sunlight is sick. I like the white stripes on yours. Pretty car.

Yeah they’re a month out, by their estimate. I’m not real confident based on what DT told me.
Well, Tire Rack is a Michelin master distributor, so they pretty much know what Michelin knows. If they say 15 May, it's probably correct. It's not likely they're guessing.

You guys should be getting them a lot quicker than us in Australia (275/40/19 & 255/40/19) are manufactured in the USA.

I read from one of the tire manufactors that many tires from different manufactors in certain sizes are on backlog.

Ok thanks, good to know. If I can’t turn up anything local tomorrow, I’ll prob order from them and wait. Thanks again.

I ordered rears last August and received them the second week of December. So if you need to get new rear PSS’s, you’d better order well in advance.
