Good afternoon people. I'm looking at getting a daily radial setup going for my RWD to avoid so much slipping and because the car is only really driven for fun majority of the time. I have not tracked or taken it to the drag strip. I'm not sure that i will, or at least until i get a nice fat ticket for driving like a maniac.
Running Jb4/meth right now, but as soon as it comes in i'll be switching to lap3 ecu/tcu. Now obviously, i think "the best tire" is really subjective to a lot of things, and i'm certainly open to suggestions other than what i'm looking at. Based on reviews i'm seeing great things about the 555r2's around the 500HP range, but me being new to wheels and tires, i'm having a hard time understanding if these will fit or not. I'm currently on h&r springs and stock wheels. I'll likely be getting lighter wheels, and have initially thought to go with 19's. Possibly in any of the following setups, 8.5 on front, 9.5-11 on the rear.
It should be noted that i've looked at that spreadsheet on here that has the wheel/tire size suggestions however, the 555r2's come in sizes that aren't referenced. See below. I don't really think that 305 is going to be possible without upgrading more suspension-related things and modifications - which i don't really plan to do right now.
275/40R19 101W
285/35R19 103W XL
305/35R19 106W XL
Secondly, i'm not sure which tire to use on the front, but nitto does reference that the G2's have the same similar tread and suggest to use those on the front. I'm a little unsure of fitment and diameters
235/35ZR19 91W XL
245/35ZR19 93W XL
245/45ZR19 102W XL
255/40ZR19 100W XL
Per the spreadsheet they used, most people seem to use a 30 on rear, 35 on the front. I understand this has something to do with the overall diameter. With the tire sizes mentioned above, What is the solution here? or is there a different tire with more size options?
