If you give me the year, make and model, I can tell you what we would have in the correct speed rating and load index?

im actually just looking for those specific sizes. personally i dont care about the speed rating or load index.

i never go with the correct posted speed on the roads anyways and as for my cluster readings, it doest bother me a bit. lol.
i assume most guys who mod their cars dont really care about this in the first place.


thanks for offering tho.

The best deal for a closeout in either size is the Fuzion ZRi - Ultra High Performance Summer.

I think tire rack still has 245/40/17 PS2s on close out. They are just a few years old.

Load index is important, depending on what car you have. The world is a litigious place these days, and most tire retailers will only sell appropriate tires for a given car to safeguard their business. And, most shops won't put an H-rated tire on, for instance, a car like an IS-F that is capable of 155+ mph.

The Tire Rack's employees are all very aware of the ins & out of this.
