        Nah, still the same story with those. Ask me how I know

          haha! Shipping was soooooo much money. Sucks. I have a set of 19" Contis SportContact6s, brand new, for ZCP wheels and haven't had any luck selling them either.

            If you can't wait I would take Continentals or Falken azenis they are better than General g-max.

              Conti's are nice, but at a premium. if you going to pay a premium, get Michelin.
              I honestly think if more people tried the General G Max RS they would fall in love. It's such a balanced tire that suits the nature of the car so well with almost no downsides. They work extremely well in the rain too.

                The Hankook RS4 are a great option, had the RS3 before my PS4S and I liked them, the RS4 specs are a step up from the 3

                  Hankook RS4s are also on backorder now. Supposedly will be restocking in the spring.

                      I found those tires to be car ruiningly bad.

                        My only other reference is the bald Michelin SuperSports the car came with and it drives 100x better

                          If it was me id wait. Also, Costco's Michelin sale is going on right now. I know some people don't like to get tires installed at Costco but Ive never had a bad experience.

                              Since you live in Oregon and have rain to consider, I would get the Contis from those choices.

                              Or just get 255/40/18 PS4s which are in stock.

                                100% - the last set of PS4S I bought for my e93m3 I got at Costco. Also the tires for our i3. They've always done a good job for me too. They also have a great no-questions-asked hazard warranty and free installation. Sometimes they're a bit limited on models, like for instance, I couldn't get the Michelin AS4+ in the sizes for our X5 (275s front and 315s rear) so I had to order them on tirerack.

                                I normally would - but tirerack says 6-8 weeks or more on backorder and can't give me an exact date. Costco, also, says 6-8 weeks and they're on nationwide backorder. Discount tire is the same way.

                                I'm really hoping to drive the e46m3 to San Diego at the end of the month, I could rent a Corolla but the e46m3 is way more fun to drive. Also, my dad just picked up a super low mileage e92m3 in LeMans blue so I'm hoping to get some family pictures along with his daily which is an f80m3.
