Those are Way to small of tires for an 11" rim. I was running 285's on the stock G35 wheels. Your car did great at VIR by the way.

I already posted in your other thread in the wheel/tire section, but...

+1 to what JETPILOT and IIQuickSilverII are recommending with the Toyo R888. Based on JETPILOT's experience, it seems that it offers a significant improvement in traction for the rear. It's also available in 305/30-19, which is the same size you are currently running.

I'm currently running 255/35-19 and 305/30-19 Bridgestone RE050A's. But I plan on switching to the Toyo R888 as my next rear tire after I go FI.

Try it!!!
