275/35/18s = Failure...

Failed with my attempt on my car with the 275/35/18s in the rear. Got too much rubbing so I ordered new 265/35/18s and hopefully they will work, otherwise time to go to 255/40/18s which will work 100% and then I will have 2 sets of tires for sale.

Did you put these tires on your Acura CL? If this is for your BMW you are in the wrong forum.

Sold that puppy for $26k at dealer so in reality I got about $28k w/ the sales tax credit. It was a '98 w/ 35k miles on it. New tires, new clutch.

'96 is a good year, but I would rather buy the '95 since it has the OBDI rather than the OBDII.
