Default RA number for my tires??

I need a new tire and the dealership is completely overpricing me. (Car is currently at the dealership) I called a couple of places with decent prices but they keep asking me for a Rating number of the tire?

Does anyone know what this is for the Bridgestone potenza 275 35R19? (Rear tire) Apparently it should be Like 3 numbers and a letter after the tire size. They were also asking wheather it is a runflat? I left a couple messages for the dealership but no response. Anyhelp?

2013 370z with Sports package.

Try Tire Rack

The replacement RE050's in that size are going for $329

They don't come with run flats so there's no need to look at those

These are the original equipped tires

Don't get RE050s.
They're shitty tires


The rating is like 96Y or something

Replace both rears while you're at it or buy a used RE050 from eBay that is close to the same wear to hold you over
