I have tried to find another manufacturer that is acceptable, such as Bridgestone, etc., but no luck. I am not interested in "slicks", which some folks in this area are using. Anyone have some advice or suggestions on this problem?
Do they fit OEM wheels?You need to get the Bridgestone Potenzas. Do a search on it in the forum. You will find many good reviews
Do they fit OEM wheels?
YES. Tons of folks use. There are quite a few posts. I love them. No comparison to the GY
I've driven to Vegas, SoCal, SLC & everywhere in between on the Hoosier "slicks"! Unless it's on standing water they work great. They have gone 260+mph with Ray & thousands of miles with me. I actually have real slicks (Goodyear G19s) that I have used on the street & they are too darty. The Hoosiers are great street tires. I'm hooked on the massive traction & corner stickiness. Great tire.

I am with Ed, Chip and Torrie as always !The Hoosiers are like crack! My only advice .Clear bra the whole lower rocker ,behind the front and rear wheel arches and the bottom of your rear bumper .Other wise no matter what tire you have the car takes road abuse in those areas.I love Pilot Sport Cups. I wish they were sized like the OEM tires. Once the Pilot Sport Cups start wearing they will look like the Hoosiers (the tread is superficial).

Go with the 255's. Review the data on the pdf attached to my previous post. Better match to the 345 rears!I was just on tire rack and they do not have Bridgestone 265/40R/18 listed. Must be out. Any other source?
Agreed. The 265s almost make the car look like its squatting. Not that its an issue, but I think the bridgestones are best tire for the money too. I've got 8K miles on mine including many track days and they're still legalGo with the 255's. Review the data on the pdf attached to my previous post. Better match to the 345 rears!
