      Tire help please

      I did a search but didn't come up with much and this is totally out of my league when it comes to car/performance tires so please shoot me some idea's in good tires to look at. I have done my test fitting on the new wheels I am ordering now I need to make sure I have the tires size in what tires I will run to make sure everything will match for fitments. I am going with a 19" up front and 20" in the rear and I know 19"s are not 100% a popular tire size so I need to see who has what I need.

      I have looked at so far but suggestions would be great:

      Nitto
      -NT555
      -Invo
      -NT05

      BFG
      -G force KDW

      Car will be used as a street car and few track days, nothing supper crazy but I want a tire that performs great when I need it. No rain, unless by chance I hit alittle in the winter months but I'll tell you this much I don't even want to put the wipers back on this car. Just my fun car, weekend toy.

      What do you guys say are some great tires everyones been happy with?




      Thanks!!!

      Street only or track days, autox or drag?

      Reread your post. I'm going with NT05 for street/ autox/ trackdays.

      nitto nt05 275/30/19 and 315/35/20. i was going to go either a 245/35 or 275/35 up front, but the 275/30 is ~ the same diameter as the 245/35 and jon seems to think it will fit a little better.

      i was going to run the nt555/nt555r combo with the 305/35/20's that i have, but im going to cut a little of the frame to make the 315 fit and am selling the 305's. i know the measurements youre coming up with, but throwing it around an autocross is a little more than driving it on the street. and the stock 4 link doesnt do a good job keeping the rear centered.
