on a serious note, s-04's are really nice! massively improved ride quality and performance on my mom's Scion TC. would definitely consider on the Z

yep, just make sure to get the 285/35/19 or wider. for some reason their 275/35/19 size is narrow. good for hella flusha toilet crowd, but not for me.

I would get the same thing I have now.

265/35/19 Front
295/30/19 Rears, or drop to 285s in the rear for less stagger. But the 295 sidewall on the PSS is soooo nice on a 10.5 wheel.

are you lowered? cause 265/35/19 is going to emphasize major wheel gap. so is 295/30...

Hard data. Only 1 test it lost, wet and dry braking. Everything else it won over the V12 and some tests over the other 2. Kills it everyday and track driving.

And tires are like the stock market, everyday the price jumps and falls. Mine when I bought were way down. Tomorrow they'll probably be down too.

That's interesting, I wonder why they'd be rated one way on what I'm seeing, and differently on what you're seeing? Crazy tirerack...


How much does a set run you?

Because yours is the "butt dyno" from people. Mine are stop watched and stuff by tire rack employees.

Mine were 255/40/18 and 285/35/18 several months back and were $630.
