I was placing my order to get on the waiting list, when Lo and Behold, their Maryland warehouse indicated they had them in stock. They must have performed a physical inventory and came across at least two 295's in stock. I received my 255/60/R15 fronts last night since they came from their Shreveport, LA, warehouse. I expect my 295 rears tonight...
PS...But, I'm with others who want someone - ANYONE - to produce a performance tire in our sizes...similar to the Goodyear Billboards...but in a radial...and preferably with the same technology used to make the white letters on their GTII tires. While I like the looks of the Billboards...the poor quality lettering is a sticking point for me. I know, it looks authentic and all that. But, it's just too high maintenance for my tastes...

That would be Avon. V rated, sticky compound, classic tread design. They are pricey, but it IS for your special ride. Worth it IMHO. A new set of sneakers for a viper or corvette would cost about the same. Christmas is coming, put it on your list.
