Hello all. I figured id chime in since this was brought back to life recently. I was running the Delinete 305s as well but didnt have any failures. Only wear really quickly and chose not to go back with them on the new set of wheels. After speaking to the local tire shop, they recommended a brand named Zenna and in 295. After being installed, not sure what this company did but it has a higher profile than even the 305 and looks way better. I got them installed last december and I usually like to run tires for at least a year before giving any opinion. But as of now, they've held up great. Tire wear is about whats expected on a lowered car but no complaints. Specially since its not a high priced tired. I think I paid 150 each with mount/balance.
PS. Tire is a 295/25/22 on a 10.5 wheel.

Knock on wood but we've been running 245 and 255 stretched tires on the 3 LS's in our crew with no issues. All 21s though with much taller sidewalls. We all were on 22s at one point but have all went to 21s. I think the moment you go to 21s and with a taller sidewalls you'll have less issues in general. I'd also stay away from the off brand China tires. Those are the ones I've had problems with in the past.
I am interested in 21" as well, but am very discouraged due to the lack of options. Do you have a recommended source to look at for rims?

Whats up BUSA!! Good to hear from you. So the Zenna tire sits taller than the 305 Delinte? That's good because when I put my 255/30/22 next to my 305/25/22, the 305 is a touch shorter. With a bubble level, the bubble is just barely in the level zone (important for my AWD system), but if the 295 you mentioned is taller, then maybe I can go back to 295 after all. On the flip side, BFG is coming out with their Comp 2's in the 305/25/22 size soon..which I'm sure are better than the Delinte. I love the 305 look though, but last few Delinte tires just don't balance up right anymore, even with road force. Under 70 mph no problem..get past that, and I got the shakes
