Question Yokohama Tire info HELP!

Ok, I want to get some yokohama tires for my car. Which ones do you guys recommend. And what are the correct tire sizes for 19x8.5, 19x9.5 and 10.5 wide. Because I believe they dont make a size for the 9.5 only 10.5.

THANKS IN ADVANCE

i dont think they make the popular 245/35 and 275/35 combo.
from what i see on their website for the avs sports, the sizes they marke are:
235/35ZR19 91Y
245/35ZR19 93Y
255/40ZR19 96Y
265/30ZR19 93Y
275/30ZR19 96Y
295/35ZR19 100Y


you could possibly run a 295/35 and 245/35 combo, but i think it may be too big a difference. you could experiment with the 9.5 rim with a 275/30 and the 10.5 with the 295/35.

Thanks!

See, I was thinking of running an 8.5 in the front and 10.5 in the rear because they seem to have the correct sizes for those wheel sizes.. Thanks for the quick reply

no problem. i would just be worried bout a agressive offset while running the 295 tire.

You don't size your tires to the width of your wheels. You size them to keep the closest to the stock diameter so your speedometer will be accurate and your traction control won't go haywire. Check out this site:
