I am still waiting on delivery of my car and almost placed the order last week, and now i found this out.
Also they are out of stock on the tmps valves and expect delivery by Dec 23rd, so if you want run flats with the sensors wou will wait a while.
I ordered Pirelli 210 Sotozero 205/50/17 with rims and sensors today, any thoughts.
Is the rubbing an issue on the coupe, sedan, or both? I just purchased 225/40/R18 Dunlop SP Winter Sport 3D tires from Tire Rack for my sedan, and was advised that this was the proper configuration. I have not put them on yet, so any help would be appreciated.
