Why do you want an A/S tire? look into summer tires.....

People may hate but for the money and quality Nankang NS2's!!!

Or look into General Exclaim UHP

Falken, toyo, general, michelin, kumho, etc. Depending on your budget.

But summer tires are softer than all-seasons, they tend to wear out faster.

Would 225 cause a stretch effect and poke on the 8.5? And I vote for the Exclaims.. good tire. Some sites say the General Exclaims are All Season and then others say its only summer. Weird.

dont need to be really stretched, unless your running a lower offset. im also running 265/35/19 on a 19x10 wheel with +40 offset with no rubbing!!! oh and lets see some pics of the wheels>

nice setup.

how low are you dropped (how many fingers between tire and fender)?

did you roll your rear fenders?

Try Pirelli P-Zero Nero M+S, if you can find them. I have a few reviews at tire-rack under the same name (andyc123). They don't give up muchat all in performance, but are quiet, are awesome in water and light snow, and last at least 50k, and that's with me beating on them. Best tire I have owned since I began driving 22 years ago.

I just recently got the General Exclaim UHP's and find that the sidewalls are too soft.
