Hell they're still cheaper than a set of stock Potenzas, and only $30 more for a set than the Ventus V12s. I printed them out last night, and between last night and this afternoon the price of the front Pilot Super Sport tire increased from $142 to $160. But as of last night a full set in my factory size PSS tires was $833 shipped, compared to $807 shipped for the Ventus V12s. Not shabby at all. Factor in the $70 Tirerack rebate card on Michelin tires and they come out cheaper than the Ventus V12s. Now I just need to jump on them before the price goes up any more.

The 275's a bit wide for the oe wheels. You can also run the 245/45-18 all around if you wanted to use the V12's.

Thanks for the help, everyone. I called around and was able to get a good price on the Michelin Pilot Super Sports - only $40 more for the set than the Ventus V12s, and the PSSs were offered in my factory stagger. I have about 300 miles on them so far and I couldn't be happier. Fantastic tires! And they ride so much better than the stock Potenzas.

I got a set of PSS today. Now that I think about it, do I have a problem? May Neil@tirerack can help, I got it from tirerack anyway...haha.

My front and back are different sizes, and PSS is asymmetric, doesn't that mean I can never rotate them?

You can go left/right but that's about it.

I thought you can't go side to side with asym...
