            What are we gonna do, soon...? Tires in sizes that we can use, in all diameters, are disappearing fast.

            Surely there's a tire company out there that wants to produce tires in E30-appropriate sizes...??

              toyo seems to be the best option for me for sizes. as are bridgestone and goodyear.

                See what is available in New Zealand does not always translate into what is available into North America.

                    225/50 would be better

                      yeah. so, ET30 or 32, etc, would bring the tires further from the fenders. ;)

                      I liked the oversized height of 235/50-15s, but 225/50s are OK. IMO, 225/45s are too short, maybe good for autox or track (nearly the same width, less weight). plus I don't think the Toyo T1Rs were very well recepted.

                        I'm noticing this too. I just bought some 15x8s et20 and the tire selection is dog shit. Il most likely end up going with 205/50/15 yoko S drives. Even though I currently have 235s and I'm not excited about the slight stretch and less grip. Smh
