Tire question
I got a set of 19's for the BMW and I'm looking for prices on the tires. My only problem is I dont know how wide of a tire I need. The rims are 19x 8.5 in the front and 19x 9.5 in the rear. I think I'm going to get the Pradda Spec 2's. I had them before and I loved them. Could someone help me out with the proper tire width? I have never had a tire wider than an 8 so i

The tire has a lot of neat implements like the curb protector, wider tread block and the unidirectional tread pattern works great in the rain.

Yup it'll fit.... my old tires were 245s on an 8" rim (factory)
Oh and don't know if you're set on what tires you've decided yet, but I recently got Vredestein Ultrac Sessantas. Believe it or not, they were cheaper than my GS-D3s AND they cost less! Even though I got a wider tread section and lower profile tire, it has less noise, the same curb-protector and has a little more dry grip. Great tire, I highly recommend it! Also highly rated by a few folks on Corvette, Camaro/Firebird, 350Z and G35 people, from what I've read so far. The brand is more common in Europe though.
The Goodyear F1 Symmetricals got really good reviews too, tirerack rated them #1 over the PS2s.
