I want tires that squeal loud!!

I think you could try underinflating your tires. Maybe and/or setting your toe as much as humanly possible. You'll get weird handling, but hell, you're the one wanting tire squeal

Thanks to all for the suggestions.I will report back my findings-lol! On another note if I decide to change out of my tires to a profile of 30 both front and back will there be too much gap and will I need to lower the car?

You can always get sh!tty tires OP. No traction means lots of noise and sliding around.

I'm already getting too much sliding around with the advans. It does not matter how much spin I produce they will not make a sound. I think maybe in the fall and spring months when the temps are cooler in canada the rubber maybe getting to hard thus the sliding effect. This is also why I'm thinking to go with a nice set of all seasons.

... The harder the rubber and the sliding is probably the reason for tire squeal, lol.

Brother, get some off road or winter tires first, or get some REALLY POS Federal tires or something.
I doubt a good all season will give you noise

Keep the same tires, add 50 - 75 lbft more torque

Seriously tho', narrower, less sticky tires will probably make more noise if that's what you really want... they will spin faster, grip less, and not provide better traction as they heat up, so they should slide and squeal more.

Traction, stability, handling, etc will go out the window tho',

and possibly the driver as well if you stomp on the brakes...

You guys got this all wrong.....some of you at least. Some people like the squeal as it lets you know as the tires reach its breaking point. RE-11's squeal some but as they squeal, you are VERY close to the breaking point. My BFG Rivals on my AutoX wheels squeal like a normal street tire would and has progressive slip so even though they are near the breaking point, I still have some leeway before they give all the way. Honestly, the BFG squeal more but they are also a better tire. I feel more comfortable on my 225/50/16 rivals then I do my 245/40/18 RE-11A's. This weekend hopefully I can test between both sets. If you wanna squeal em just to squeal, well then get yourself a set of All-season tires.

Ok, I have nailed it down to three Tires. Continental DWS, Michelin as3's, or Bridgestone 970's. I think I might go with the continentals considering they are the cheapest and I might order an extra set because for some reason I do not think they will last very long-lmao!!
Also I plan on getting 305's in the rear and 265's up front. Will I have any figment issues with the stock nismo rims?

Oh I didn't see you were in Canada. You need to buy American tires if you want squeal. Canadian tires are too polite to squeal.

That makes sense & think of all the noise & squealing that will happen after you lose control & hit a tree.
