I've been running Falken tires on my Mustangs for a while now and I LOVE the performance I get out of them for the money, but recently I ran into a glitch. I put deep dish Bullitt wheels on my '96 GT Vert a little over a year ago - 17x9 front and 17x10.5 rear. They came with Sumitomos which have NO grip and NO LIP PROTECTOR - also wear out faster than songs on z100. I had already put Falkens on the front when I ate through the Sumitomos on the twistys, but now the rears are getting pretty bald so I went to Falken's site to try to order some tires, and they don't have any 315's for 17" rims - only 18" and up. I emailed the company recently because they have a section for "size and product suggestions" but haven't heard anything yet.
Anybody else annoyed at the fact that they can't get Falken 315s for 17" rims?
Also (because I might have to suck it up and move on) - what recommendations do you all have for a great year-round street tire that will fit 17x10.5 rims that would be good alternatives to the Falkens?
