There are no other options available. You can step down to 255/30r21, but that might create diameter issues between the front and rear and I think Pirelli might be the only tire in that size. Too lazy to check now.

I had the same problem just last week getting the same tire. TireRack told me maybe they will start production again in 60 days. I ended up ordering the 255's. The difference in diameter is not an issue. Now just waiting on the wheels to show up...

Just out of curiosity... could we do Pirelli P Zero 275/30/21 F and 325/25/21 Rear?

That would be pushing it.

Congrats, great choice!

Looks amazing! What front tires did you end up choosing?

greentrbo95gst · 05-07-2014, 04:55 PM

I went with 265's. Found one tire in Texas and one in Washington DC.
Tire rack doesnt know when the production starts again. I went to the source and they claim no plans to re-start it as of now.
