I was thinking of those, but want to keep the OEM tire sizes.

These are the best tires I've ever owned. Hands down. When cornering the just grip like velcro.

What size? They don't have OEM sizes.

These things will stick, even if the road is dirty/rocky.

I had a set installed on my factory 19" Rays last week, in standard OEM sizes. I'm still breaking them in and haven't driven aggressively but first impression is that they are less noisy than the Potenzas. Not much, but noticeable. I went on a 200 mile freeway round trip Saturday. I didn't notice any difference in ride comfort but from what everyone says about the performance I think I'll be pleased. Now if I can get more than the 18K miles out of them that I got with the Potenzas I'll really be happy.
