Help: Tire recommendations for new 19x10.5" square for DD use and tire rotation

chops

it was unfortunately. goodluck with your setup! would love to know how it works out for ya

jooonnn

Do you think rolling fenders/liner modification would have helped your situation a lot more had you been more aware?

Im still really new to this but, Does height of the tire/sidewall affect rubbing too?

Also fyi, i really appreciate all this advice you have been giving.

I've ran a 255/35/19 front, 295/30/19 rear setup for some time, and it never rubbed. (I was dropped on KWv3's at the time 1" all around. When I went to 265/35 up front they did rub in tight corners or on bumps mostly. So I raised the fronts a bit and that stopped.

On the stock sport 10" wheel, not a 10.5", that's only on the nismo's a 285/35 will be fine if you're going square. If you're doing a front/rear staggered setup, I'd recommend 265/35 front, 285/30 rear. That's what I'll probably going to for my next set as the price of PSS' is a big chunk, and PSS is discontinuing the 265/35 size.

I'll be looking into the Bridgestone Potenza S-04 Pole Position in a 265/35, 285/30 setup for my next run. It always scores #2 on TR after the PSS.


If you're considering the RE-11's, I would shy away from them as a DD tire personally. They do not have the colder grip that the PSS' do, and no where near the lifespan. RE-11's are great for tracking, but not the best for DDing. That's where I think the S-04 would be a good option for you to look into as well. Being close to the PSS in performance, but for $400 less.

I was told the S04's run narrow so that's good for the stretched look i'd imagine. Is there a benefit to less sidewall going with a 285/30 over a 285/35?

It will fit with no rubbing.

And you retain the OEM outer diameter so your speedo will be accurate.

I got nothing but good things to say about the Bridgestone re-760's. I have them on my street 19's. I think they look pretty bad *** and they are fine for a track day(although I have separate wheels/tires for that). You will save some bread vs the re-11s which imo are a complete waste of money for street use. You never use 60% of what an RE-11 is capable of just street driving.

Agreed... I have a 275 on a 10.5 wide rim right now and you definitely don't see too much stretch at ALL. 285 can only be better than that, unless it really depends on the tire as well.

jooonnn

Do you have a pic by any chance? What tire brand are you running? I'm starting to learn toward a 275/35/19 on front and rears in Pilot Super Sports since they run a little wider and tirerack states it will fit/look similar to my 285/35/19 in advan sports

Wish I had better pictures, but here they are... Enkei PF01 18x10.5 with Toyo R888 275/40r18 square.





*edit* Syno, go away. Nobody likes you, nor your input on anything.

jooonnn

Love it!!! I especially love that tire tread.

Now for the billion questions... Lol

What offsets are you runnin? Camber? Are you lowered? Did you have to do any fender modding/do you rub?

Phew....

Lol want some cheese with that wine cry baby?

Those look ******* horrible! Tires aren't supposed to look like round balls! Stop telling people to do this crap. That tires recommended to mount to a 9.5" wheel. Mod right or not at all!

PS want to compare likes and rep? Yeah thought not.

+38 front +15 rear. Camber is -2.5 front -1.5 rear, lowered on eibach springs. No fender modification. These pics were when I also was running a 10mm spacer on the front but I don't think it's necessary for sport brake clearance.

Syno, I could care less how many likes you have. I'm simply answering the questions they've asked. Never said it may be optimal or not but the times I've run the car on the track it felt great. I'm no expert but this isn't terribly wrong and I will probably go with a wider tire in the future. If it bothers you THAT much then

shaun66

I don't see why it doesn't look good

PharmDZ

He has more reps and likes Shaun. If you don't agree with him you're just as retarded as I am.

But anyways, 19" definitely gives you some better tire size options I think. The 18's I went with needed that odd size 40 aspect ratio to keep the rolling diameter/ride height closest to stock.
