Bridgestone Potenza 275/40/18 Tires.

I have a S430, 2000 with the 18" AMG chrome wheels. Someone I know offered me 4 Bridgestone Potenza 275/40/18 Tires for the good price. I was wondering if I can have that size: 275/40/18 on all my 4 wheels…Any ideas? Don't want to loose a good deal

Nooo... These are too wide for the front and made for a 9.5 to 10. wheel.

Normally this is the tire you would use for a staggered setup with the 275's being in the rear and a 245 45 18 in the front

I wanted to buy these but they were too expensive. You can only put them on the rear wheels, if you dont mind me asking how much are they offering you them for and i am willing to buy two from you.

He wants $600.00 for the 4 tires. It is less than 300 mill. on them... almost brand new. I am in LA.

So, if I buy 2 of them and installed them in the rear, that's should be fine, right?

You should be fine with those in the rear.

Only if you rear wheels are 9.5". They are too wide for an 8.5" wheel
