What tires are these?

Picked up my 335GT today, staggered 18" wheels with the M-Sport brakes. Tires say Continental ContiSportContact SSR, in 225/50 and 255/45-18. Tire Rack doesn't have these listed. They have no Continentals listed in these sizes. Continentals site, likewise, doesn't have them listed, or anything listed in these sizes in Summer tires.

Need to know exactly what I have, because they're going up for sale in a couple of days when I put on DWS's and I need to know what to ask for them.

Any ideas? It was supposed to come with Pirelli P7 Cinturato's in these sizes according to Tire Rack.

EDIT: WAIT!! They're listed in the ETK. P/N 36122337841 for the fronts, 36122336983 for the rears.

Try looking up Continental Contisportcontact 5 SSR. There are a few options from the factory on the staggered 18" tires (Bridgestone, Continental and Pirelli).

My 2014 M Sport staggered 18" tires are the Contisportcontact tires.

18s are a no cost option and required with the M-Sport brakes. 19s cost $600 more.

Noticed this on our 335gt sport line with summer tires also has the Contis (non-staggered 225/50-18 all around). Tire Rack does carry the Pirelli P7 runflat summer in the appropriate sizes for the GT 18" summer setups so that's better than paying the dealer In any case.

Chances are they're not imported yet, not enough cars use them. Whatever it says on the sidewalls is what they are.
