I decided to get a staggered setup as follows:

245/40/19
275/35/19

This size gives me the closest OEM rolling size. I am looking at the Hankook Ventus V12 evo K110 as a great value/option. Is there a better budget conscious tire there. Are there cheaper places than TireRack?




Old Question:
I am getting ready to buy some Volk RE30 with the following specs:

19 X 9.0 Off. 38
19 X 10.0 Off. 35

I need tires. I don't want a stretched look. Is there a calculator that can tell me what size tires will fit?

2011 S Sedan dropped on Eibachs with a rear camber kit.

for the front, anything from a 245 to a 275 fits that size rim. For the rear, anything from a 255 to a 295 should fit. If you don't want a stretched look, but a rather flush look, run a 265 and a 285 you want have any problems. Only issue would be rubbing. See what people with that size and offset are using and use the same thing

For those specs... I'd go with 245/35 and 275/30.

If you want a mild stretch, 225/35 and 255/30

If you want aggressive fatty tires, 255/35 and 285/30 (I have these sizes on my 9.5" front and 10.5" rear wheels.

I doubt you'll have any rubbing issues. You have 19's and Eibachs.

The 245/40-19 and 275/35-19 is a very popular plus size.

This is an interesting tire / wheel comparison tool:

Custom rims, wheel tire packages for your ride - RIMSnTIRES.com

It will show you a visual comparison of how plus sizes will look and how a slightly different tire will affect your speedometer at 60 MPH. Set one tire on the left view and a different one on the right. Set the wheel size the same for both sides for an accurate comparison.

I'm wanting to go 305/20 R20 in the rear - Eibach, Vossen 10.5, +42

Anyone know if this will work? It LOOKS like it will be fine ... but, hoping someone can say for sure.

I have had my G37s for less than 3 months and have had two side wall blowouts after hitting potholes. I bought the car with Hankook tires, which apparently are HORRIBLE. So instead of replacing this last blow out with another Hankook, I'm thinking of different tires, but also different sizes. Do you think that Bridgestone Potenza RE760 Sports would be a good match. And the size I'm looking at are 275/35/19 on OEM Sport wheels and 245/40/19.

1. Would they look good?
2. What is this going to do to the ride quality? (this is my daily driver so I like comfort)

Here's an opinion. Drive more carefully. It's not a defect in the tires. It's your driving. I drive Houston roads and streets on Hankook tires every day for the last 4 years in my G. I used to have the exact same sizes, now I have comparable sizes on 20" wheels. I've never had a blowout. I have lots of friends who drive G's as well here and no issues with their Hankook's either. Hankook are pretty decent tires.

I don't think it's the tires, I think it's your driving habits. If you simply cannot avoid driving through potholes, slow down. Also, make sure they're always properly inflated. That helps.
