I am planning on getting some SSR Professors from tirerack. It was my b-day and I got some cash.
I was looking to get 19's however the tires are extremely expensive. For example... summer tires = 315 a pop for 19's.... while all seasons in 18 = 140 a pop.
Anyways.... Basically wondering what size is good for the Z... for 18 is 10.5 in the back too wide? And finally anyone know of any decent but cheap tires one can buy for 19 in rims?
Any info would be GREATLY appreciated

/\ thanks
sizes I do know... but name of tire and the model would be great. I dont feel like spending over 300 per tire. (You get what you pay for I know)

Kabs - let us know if you need the wheels, as we have a set of 19's in stock, and we're in NY, so it's close

As far as good tires in a 245/35 and 275/35, look at the Potenza S03's (on special) BF Goodridge KDW2, and Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3 - all are excellent, and all come in under $300 a piece

I'd ditch that chart - several of those tires are not even made anymore
you're spending good money on nice wheels - no need to skimp and buy something crappy like a General Tire - this aint an '88 Cherokee![Smilie](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif)
If you are not looking to spend a fortune, something like a Toyo T1R is a nice find - good grip levels, no insanely priced, lightweight for it's size. Is it going to set any lap time records? No. Is it the grippiest tire out there? Absolutely not. Is it affordable, relatively quiet, and safe in the rain? You bet
