I guess I only see them as getting more expensive over time. I think I am going to go 18's. I know lots of people do not like the look but it looks good to me!

I did search by the way, must have gone to quick because I was not able to find prices.

I believe the prices change each year. 2015 prices are posted. My Yoko's are aging out, so Avons will replace them.

If you like 18's, then that's all that matters.

Bill,

There are only two sources for Avon CR6ZZ tires in the US, Kraus and Sasco....and the price is the price. In a 15" tire the Avon is the gold standard.....good traction, decent in the wet and actually the life span for mileage is not bad (we have had reports of 20K with no track use)

Whatever you decide, 15", 17" or 18" remember that the ENTIRE car rides on four small contact patches and while many will spend HUGE amounts for horsepower and then run BFG TAs, your life, car and passennger are dependent on the tires. Do not skimp and do not choose "bling" over "stick"!

I am actually waiting for my new set of 245 and 295's from Roger Kraus right now! Nothing like the smell of good fresh rubber in the morning.
