235/40/18 New Dulnlop Direzza DZ101

I'm selling these brand new tires for $340 with free shipping. I paid $520 for these when i bought them. These are very good tires, i've owned them before but i cant use them right now. I'm needing to use 225's not 235's. They changed design on these from before and the side wall looks just like the Direzza star specs.

The tread pattern is the same but sidewall has changed looks. They look very aggressive now compared to the older version. I owned a set of these two years ago

So you ordered 235's? But you want 225's? 235's fit the SS T/C's just fine if your thinking they wont fit? I've never heard of anybody buying new tires and deciding they didnt want them and decide that loosing a $100 or $200 on them is the best option>?. sounds fishy to me.

Maybe you can ship them back still in box and have them ship you the tires you want?

I bought them for my oz alleggerita wheels which I sold them on here about 2 months ago. If you look at my posts you will see that I buy a lot of wheels and tires and sell them. I have sold everyone of them on here with no problems. So how is that fishy. The last guy who posted about having the 19's bought them from me. His username is Rangerondubz

Here are some details on the tire:

The Direzza DZ101 is Dunlop's Ultra High Performance Summer tire for the drivers of sport compact cars. The Direzza DZ101 shares the Direzza name with Dunlop racing tires used in the Japanese SUPER GT Championship and was developed to provide crisp and responsive handling. The Direzza DZ101 is not intended to be driven in near-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice.

The Direzza DZ101 features Dunlop's specially formulated Silicarbon Matrix tread compound (combines silica and carbon black) to enhance grip. The compound is molded into a directional tread design featuring rigid shoulder blocks and two wide, straight tread channels with long, oblique grooves to combine responsive handling, stable cornering and hydroplaning resistance. The tire's internal structure includes twin steel belts reinforced by Dunlop's Jointless Band (JLB) spirally wound nylon cord cap ply to stabilize the tread area enhancing tread wear, handling and high-speed capability. A polyester cord body enhances ride quality while Max Flange Shields help resist rim damage due to accidental curbing.
