19x 8.5f/9.5r Need New Tires! HELP
ok.. here's the facts: I have HP Racing EVO Wheels (staggered) 19 x 8.5 Front / 19 x 9.5 Rear
Previously I had the Nitto NT555 Extreme on my rims... but the fronts are completely gone!! the metal threading is showing and I think they are too low profile and the compound might be too soft as well... My rears are still in good condition.. I just need to know what I'm doing wrong? I don't drive the car hard, I don't race it.
I think I want to run the fat set up.. but what are the benefits? I looked at rominl's tire size chart and 19 x 8.5 aren't on the chart... also.. what tire brands are good? I want something that'll last me the longest possible time.
thanks in advance

If you are looking for price and exeptional performance, milage get Dunlop Direzza. Good on dry, just fine wet but great on thread life. I think i can get 3 seasons out of them, avareging 5-7K a season.
You have seen how my GS is dropped........
