I have some volk 19 9.5 by 10.5 i want some really sticky tires for my power. What size tires and brand should I get? I'm a noob when it comes to tires.
Thanks!

Wow, 275/305 seems like WAY too much tire unless the car has forced induction, all those sizes will do is creat unnecessasary friction, drag, and added weight which will kill acceleration and gas mileage. Not to mention cost of such wide rubber. I'd go 255/35 19 and 275/35 19.

I do have FI so I want some reall sticky tires.
FRONT:19X9.5 +28 offset current tires 245/35/19
REAR:19x10.5 +23 offset current tires 285/35/19
Can I go wider? I want something that can help me put the power down.
FRONT:19X9.5 +28 offset current tires 245/35/19
REAR:19x10.5 +23 offset current tires 285/35/19

Plus or minus 10 mm is not going to make a difference in performance. Tires will: https://my350z.com/forum/showthread....ighlight=tires.
There is no need to go with 275 fronts, 255 is probably the widest you will want to go, any wider and you will likely notice the steering get slightly sluggish. How low are you dropped? A 295/30 might be your best bet, and with some fender rolling, you shouldn't have any major issues. KDWs are my favorite all weather tire, very sticky, should do the trick for ya
