Sounds like the kind of sizes I want to run! What wheels did you go with?

Stock size. Don't want to lose sidewall, see no sense in going wider either, also don't feel like adding weight to the tire. 275 is more than wide enough for the power output of our cars.

ForgeLine rims. 9.5x19 and 12x19. With the gun metal centers. It will take about 4 weeks before I see the rims tho.

My PSS were delivered to my parent's house today. Can't wait to check them out this weekend.

FWIW, I suggest trying to wear your new tires around your neck like a large necklace. It's fun. And just a cool thing to do...

In the privacy of your own garage, of course.

If I was real small I'd wear the tires and take some Michelin Man pics, but I think I'll just enjoy these rubbers tires in private.











Oh c'mon, this is totally normal relative to Phelan's pillow fetish

It's actually quite comfortable and warm inside a stack of Michelin Pilot Super Sports. I'll be sure to include that little tidbit in my Tire Rack review.
