Need some tire help

shabarivas · 03-16-2010, 02:29 PM

so its about that time of year when I have to get some new sticky rubber for my car... here are the rim specs:

Volk ce28 19x9.5 +22 F and 19x10.5 +22 R ...

What are the widest stickiest tires I can run? Need some brand advice and size advice... I have been told by the guys @ forged that I should run 305s and 265s ... problem is ... Im not too sure who all make a 305x30x19 and a 265x35x19 to match the wheel / sidewall size close to stock... any ideas?? What are people running tire brand wise?

Tires to look at: Bridgestone RE-11 and Hankook V12
RE-11 is near the top but so is the price while the V12 are a bit cheaper and still a great tire. You can get 305 & 265 in these.

hmm cool will do ... yea ... dont want to shell the bucks for the RE11s as I still have my stock wheels tires for autoX / track days worst case... was toying with maybe getting some R888s but... the sizes are goofy etc... ill look into the V12s
