Default Best Tires for a lowered Performance Z riding on 19s

Looking for some tires for my 19s I have Flaken Azienis or something like that on there now the Suck! I hate them I have balnced them 9 times and at 125 or so the vibrate like hell and are always out of balance. They have no grip and the rears spin no matter how easy or hard I am on the throttle. Looking at some michelin Pilot Sports and looking to go a little wider than 275 in the rear. Thanks for the imput!

NITTO 555's are alright too and cheeper...

Is it possible that your wheels are not hubcentric? It seems odd you would need to get your tires balanced so often. I am rolling on Falkens and havent had any issues with them thus far.

I have looked over my wheels and checked the hubcentric part all seems to be ok. The problem seems to be in the tires High speed blancing seemed to take care of the problem temporarily but the need for tires will be soon any suggestions? Also does anyone know if toyo makes a Proxes 4 to fit those sizes?
