Snow tires 2008/2009
« on: June 21, 2008, 09:09:51 PM »
Hey Eddy, will there be a new size of Hankooks or Contis for the 451 starting this fall/winter?  I think I would like a set of the 155/175s if they are available.  I have a spare set of sportline wheels to mount them on.  I think the 4 inch front rim will take a 155.

If not, I assume the old 145/175 sizes will still be available this autumn?

Hey Mike,

There are new Conti's in 155/175. And we have the 145/175 in stock now.

I am thinking of the wider ones, so if you think the 155 would fit OK on the 4 inch wide sportline front rim, I think I may go for those.  We should talk again in October or so!

I don't think there will be a big issue. However, I'm not sure if the gain will becomes a lost.
