Craig,

Had the same problem with my stock wheels for the 348tb.
Rob from this board recommended BF Goodrich g-force T/A-KD as a dry weather tire with the best grip. Otherwise he said that Bridgestone S-03 Potenzas are also worth a try! Have them mounted newly at my Z3 but haven�t driven long enough to evaluate.
Both tires should provide good dry weather grip.
Have had Bridgestone S-01 Expedia for my 348. Was quite satisfied with them but they wear quite a lot as well (Rear tires around 10000km!)
Hope that helped a bit!



Con saluti cordialissimi,

Reiner,
I understand your running 295 on 18" rims.
What tyre depth are your tyres and rim width ?
I am on 275x35X18" at the rear. My rim width is 10". I have 150mm spacers on my rear rims.
I think I could go up any size to 285 or 295 maybe. Does the tyre on 295 over hang a lot on the rim ??
Also what are you running on the front.
Thanks for helping....

Hi guys,

Need to get 4 new tyres for my 94 348GTS. have always had p zeros on it but fancy something different as the p zeros wear so quickly and I like the look of those ones with the tread pattern that swoops into the centre (does that make sense?)

Can anyone help ?
