I just heard back from my supplier. He says they don’t normally post their winter inventory until early to mid-september.

If this group buy lasts that long I’ll keep checking on the status of that. Or, if there is interest (please post and show your interest so that I know!) I could do third group buy maybe in late september or november.

well if these are for your 240, i might recommend using a different size than you are asking for unless you are not putting these on your stock wheels

it’s a common misunderstanding that wider tires are more ideal for snow traction but in reality, within reason, the smaller you can go - the better.

I recommend considering the 195/55/15 Hankook Winter iPike if you are mounting on your stock 7-spokes.

as an example of this theory - look at any snow rally photos and look at the tires they are running. probably a lot smaller than a 195 and most of those cars make 250whp + 🙂

The idea is that the tread is very effective and the more weight you can concentrate on a smaller area only improves its effectiveness.

To Max: please dont argue this point, it’s a very basic means of explaination and we already know what you’re going to say. k thx 🙂

Ok so regarding the Dunlop Direzza DZ101…

The sizes you requested are special order so i’ll need to take in to consideration the longer shipping time when I place the order - it’s nothing you need to worry about.

The prices are as follows:

Dunlop Direzza DZ101  
REAL Performance For Extreme Drivers. Z-speed rated.  
235/45/17  
UTQG: 300AA  
**CAD $133 per tire**

Dunlop Direzza DZ101

245/45/17

edit: i wonder how long it would take to get these special ordered

how many tires do you have so far, just trying to calculate when you’ll close this GB and how fast i could get these tires

thanks again John

you can see the list above samson, those are all of the people who have committed (although i havent received any deposits yet)

special order is 7-10 days from the supplier (as opposed to 2-3 days) but like i said, i’ll be coordinating that timing so that i can bring everything back at the same time.

good thing you posted this because I totally missed the original question… if i’ve missed other questions please let me know guys!! I generally have no reason to not reply within 8 hours or so… I check my email often.

if it goes more than a day I probably missed it or forgot about you 🙂

To answer the question, I can get both bronze and silver FN01Rc in 17x9 +20 offset in 4x114.3

5Zigen FN01R-C (Bronze of Silver)  
17X9 / 4-114.3 / +20  
**CAD $255 per wheel**

as with any other wheel if you purchase a tire to go along with it the mount and balance is free.

John, can you put me down for this?

**2x Dunlop Direzza DZ101**  
REAL Performance For Extreme Drivers. Z-speed rated.  
235/45/17  
UTQG: 300AA  
CAD $133 per tire

If there are any problems with stock and cannot be ordered for couple weeks/month then you can take my name off the list. It will make the GB too complicated if you can’t get all the tires at once, also making it more hassle for you.

thanks again buddy!
