tire suggestions

[1970cuda]

this is for a chevelle project



with all the mini tubbed cars around here i need some help.
trying to decide to go with
michelin pilot ps2 255/40/19 27 inch tall
335/30/20 28 inch tall
or
Pirelli p zero rosso 255/35/19 25.9 inch tall
345/25/20 26.9 inch tall
suggestion welcome

nitto will come out with the same size as the pirelli's summer of this year?

If all you can fit up front is a 255, ideally you should go with a 315 or even a 295 in the rear. The 335 (or even worse 345) is going to be an extremely unbalance combination when coupled with the 255 up front. If you're going more for looks than handling, then run whatever suits your looks best.

Take a look at this thread for more info:

next question all being same what brand michelin.,pirelli, nitto ......?

I think compound matters more than anything. I haven't heard complaints from anyone on the above three brands, I'm not sure you could go wrong with any of them. I would say choose a manufacturer that best meets your needs via both sizes and price, and then research them. I'm sure others will have comments as well. I'm currently running Kumho Ecsta MX on my Camaro, and I'm very pleased with them, especially for the price. Kumhos are excellent tires, and they don't hurt the wallet too much. I'm running 275/35/18s and 295/35/18s and both sizes were around $210.
