Default Hankook RS4 255 40 17

I am looking to buy a set of Hankook RS4, but I do not see 255-40-17 on Tire Rack? I have seen pictures of this size tires but cant find a place to buy them. I am planning on running 225s fronts and 255 rears. My rims are .5" wider than stock all around and I did not want to see much stretch on the tires.

This is my current set of tires that came with my wheels 215s front and 245s rears, I at least wore them enough to feel good about getting a new set. Notice how stretched they look on this picture.

Frankly that doesn’t look stretched to me. What are your wheel specs?

Make a wtb thread in the want to buy section but this is not the place to ask if people have a set available for sale. Guests are not allowed to offer items for sale on the forums.

My wheel spec fronts 17x7.5-48 and rears 17x9-45. My car is about 1 inch lowered. I am considering the RE71R or Michellin PS2 as they have the size right now instead of waiting till spring to have RS4s

I think they got rid of rs4 in 255 because I also couldn’t find them anywhere.

Well so much for my effort in locating the RS4 in 255/40R17, I have decided on my option 2 which are Michelin PS2.
