Which Tires to Get?
Hi, I just got some new rims and have no idea what to get as far as tires go. Now Ive narrowed down my tire sizes to 245/35/19 fronts and 275/30/19 rears. What tires do you recommend I get? I did not want to go too lowpro because the streets I ride on are bad and I nearly curbed my rims a month ago, but was find because the tires were thick and protected my rims from a very bad rash. Im looking for a tire that is quiet and at the same time affordable because I am on a budget. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

Im just asking what tires I should get. I already know what size I need, just need a suggestion on wha kinda of tires you guys recommend.
But if you really need it, 19x8.5 +35 and 19x9.5 +38. (Offsets might be off a little bit cause I dont remember exactly what they are, but I know those would be the right tire sizes because Ive asked many times on other subforums here)

I'm running on Vredestein Sessanta right now..They are very reasonable in price, the tire grips nicely, and have lots of desireable sizes! The aggressive design on the tire is truly a unique thread pattern..I also got the opportunity to meet one of the head people at Vredestein, he was generous and very knowlegdable about tires; definitely great company to deal with..I would highly recommend Vredesteins to everyone and anyone looking for max performance tire..

There are tons of options as far as tire selections... Bridgestone and Michelin are always on top as far as performance, but you definitely pay for it...
A quick search on Tire Rack shows:
Bridgestone
Continental
Dunlop
Goodyear
Michelin
Pirelli
Sumitomo
Yokohama
Fuzion
General
Kumho
Get the best tire you can afford... A vehicles performance varies more by it's tire than almost anything else you can do to it, especially in a handling aspect...

I was about to get the Generals but I would have to wait until next week to get them so I just went ahead and got the Falken 542s for an extra 25bucks. The rears look a little stretched however. I have a 275/30 on the rears, shouldve gotten a 285 or higher....
But thanks for all the comments guys!

I had 275's on a 9.5" wheel and there was a little bit of a bulge... now I have 285's and they are definitely a fat fitment...
