Hi guys.. I see here in the states we can get the 245/40R18 for the front and 275/30R19 for the rear... but looks like in Japan they have the 275/35R19 bridgestone RE 01R...
on US bridgestone website aren't listed, tire rack doesn't list the 275/35..
so, I'm missing something or they aren't imported here?

I have 265/35-18 f and 275/30-19 r Bridgestone RE 01Rs on my Nismo and they work great.

do you mind posting a pic or two just to see the sidewall? I was thinking that might be really really thin.
(that's exactly the "alternative" setup I was thinking about)

If you plug 275/30/19s into a tire calculator and compare against stock sizes, that size is not recommended.

well I know, but what is really bothering me is that to have GOOD sticky tires is a mess with the 19" in the rear... and in japan they had the right size, we don't.. plus we have eventually to wait another year before the RE11 (replacement of the RE01-R)

Whitt1 I also have 285/30 on my 2008 Nismo but I am so on the edge to go to a 295/30. I just don't know if the stick out will be to ugly. Any1 out there have 295/30 on stock rimms.
