which tires you guys running???
I just ordered my Volk TE37's in bronze for my z. 19x8.5 F, 19x10.5 R +22 on both, and I haven't picked out a set of tires yet.
I don't know much about the technical side of things, so I need help choosing some good ones. I'm gonna go talk to a guy today at Delta who is a friend of a friend so hopefully he can help me find some... I just want to know what I'm looking for before I go in there
Any suggestions??

you can also run 245/35 and 285/35, pretty much any combo of those four tires and be fine.

Well... I did have the NITTO 555r's on a Chevy Extreme about 6 years ago... I don't think I ever remember having trouble in the rain, and I'm in Houston...rains, alot

Nitto 555's here...not a fan of them in dry. I feel that a tire as wide as my rears, should be able to hold the ~270ft/lbs of torque...
Lateral grip isn't bad, but as far as GO grip goes...there's something to be desired. It is entertaining to see a Z sitting, spinning the tires...but its not very productive.
Its been raining here for a week, and I haven't had any issues at all.
What's a "Vredstein"? bicycle tire brand?
I'll prolly try Invo's, or T1R's next time, assuming I own the car long enough to replace the tires (not common for me).

nitto 555's
dude i have nitto 555's and they suck, i do not like them at all, i have intake exhaust plenum spacer and these tires are not ablt to hold that, i can't get traction at the track with them 1st, 2nd, 3rd and chirps 4th. and i don't like how they handle but also the big thing is wet traction, absolutely none, i can spin easily as soon as i am into it, they hydroplane alot also. but cornering in the rain is sketchy as i feel the rear end is just gonna kick out. tellin you don't get them, also i am looking for suggestions on some sticky *** street tires what should i get for my 19's????? those invo's look pretty sick can't imagine they are any good in the rain though
