So now the next step is tires… (19x8 rims offset is +45mm)….. What do we recommend on here… keep in mind I wanna maximize comfort (although I know going 19s just killed that) and the car will be dropped on comptech springs within the next few weeks. I've always thought that 225/35'19s would be the way to go... but i've heard some talk about going 235/35-19's.... So I need suggestions on brand, and model.... and size.... hell if ya can give me some good places to buy online too... of course I know tirerack.com. I'd like to cap it at 200 per tire in terms of cost. My most important features is NOT performance, I need comfort and above all good tread wear... I drive A LOT (26k a year) I dont wanna have to replace tires more than once a year at that rate.


thanx in advance for all the help guys!

Not sure abotu tires, but i check tires.com and tirerack.com, and definetly take some pix when you get those on there.

PS another main concern is keeping it as close to stock diameter as possible… I want the speedo as accurate as can be because I do a lot of driving like I said… and doesn't that also mess up the odo? I don’t want it to say I'm putting on more milage than I really am.

dzuy

you need 235/35-19.

i would, once again, call brian at racing zone and ask him. i have toyo proxes 4 , 235/35-19. a great tire, good tread rating and little tire noise.

i also used to have the nitto nt555 tire, also good treadwear and low tire noise.

tell him i sent you, he'll help you out.

all the modded TSXs i know in orlando have 19"s now except me...haha

this tool will help u find the right size tire. like i said in your other post 235/35/19 is a perfect match, however it may have more noise than a 225/35/19 because of the more thread, but it'll also give you more grip.

read the reviews at tirerack even if you don't buy tires there, lots of people have left good feedback about dry/wet grip, noise, etc.

I believe discounttire is popular as well

dzuy

and you'll be the only one w/o jdm headlights too. i'm gonna convince everyone to buy and flaunt it in your face

Hey Dzuy, can you hook me up with his number over there at Racing Zone again? I haven't contacted him in the longest time. I lost his number with my old phone. And I'm not in Orlando, so I can't use the phone book. Too cheap for 411.

Hook a brotha up?

Lol hook me up with a decen tprice on JDM headlights and I might do that too ;-) i think it would loook hot on the silver/ hyper silver rims

dabuda

haha

good, i've always wanted to see what they looked like in person b4 i bought them for myself

I'm thinking Nitto Nt555; but I didn't have good experience with the wear rate on the CL... any suggestions? Aren't the Toyo's pretty high up there dzuy?

Arite thats it; got tired of waiting. Brian was gonna take too long to get my tires; and I was going to have to wait 2 weeks to have em' mounted and put on the car...

So...

Bought Nitto NT555R Extreme 235/35-19's off of www.tires.com. Should be here no later than Wednesday June 30th. Same day (if not a day later) than my Rims that I bought off of E-Bay. Then gotta find a local shop here in Coral Springs to mount/balance them and throw em' on the car. CAN'T WAIT!

LoL still gonna be broke for several weeks before I can afford to purchase and install the springs/rear camber.

Oh well... baby steps....
