Need suggestions on tires
I just finished a cross country drive (San Diego to Boston) and the tires are about done. I'm having a hard time finding anyone here that carries my tire size for Hankook V12's.
Looking at S.Drives as an alternative

I'm looking at 255/35/R19's. I would order them but thing is, I'm leaving Boston Sunday morning because I am traveling on Navy orders to Virginia. All the shops said they can't get them til Monday or Tuesday. I'm going to the Lexus dealership in my town in the morning to see what they have and the prices. I'm looking for a good tire around the V12's price range but I don't mind paying a little more if I have to.
EDIT: These are the options I'm looking at
-Hankook V12
-Yoko S.Drives
-Continental EC DW
If I can get a full front (225/35/R19) and rear set for about 1k then that would be awesome. I need to check Sears too because I'm sure the stealership is gonna try to rape me

My Lexus dealership price-matched Tire Rack for me this past weekend. Obviously it varies, but that was @ Lexus of Orlando.
They ordered me the Hankooks, arrived and installed in 3 days. I'm assuming they should be able to order you the 19's no problem. Also got the mounting and balancing for $15 total.
They didn't give me any hassle, I did have to print the Tire Rack price using one of the computers in their lounge area.

After searching everywhere for tires, I finally found a place that has them in stock! Well, not any of the brands I wanted but the size. I had to settle for Goodyear Eagle GT. Hopefully they are decent enough. I plan on changing them again to the actual tires I want before I leave Virginia for San Diego.
