To be honest i think 355 is to big for stock wheel size but I couldn't pass on the price. They will work for me for most of my driving. I am going to Auto X mine this weekend. Ill let you know what I think.

Well I have my tires all mounted and balanced and I did my Auto X yesterday. I had no problems with my traction control/active handling at all. The grip was great and far better than my aging INVO tires I have on my other wheels. I ended up getting faster with every lap and finished 6th overall. Not to bad considering the cars that topped me where completely setup for Auto X. The straight at the end was not part of your time. Would have been fun if it was as I would have made up a lot of time on them. I had either the fastest or second fastest MPH at the end of the straight amongst the group at 139 MPH. It was between me and a 650+ HP CTS-V. For some reason they email you results later.

What size front tire are you running in combo with the 355/3-19 rear?

285/35-18. Also Pirelli P-Zero. With that combo I felt the car had a great balance.

I'm still running the 275/35-18 Nitto Invo up front, but am looking at the 285 Pirreli for the near future. I frickin LOVE these tires, and get complimented on them constantly now.

Check out my vid from my auto x this weekend. It has a g meter and it went over 1g a few times and .9x many times. These tires seem to work if you ask me.

These things are FAT, can't wait to have them mounted. Here's a pic next to my M&H 325s .

Honestly no, not that I've noticed. Where I live there's plenty of 90* turns and round-a-bouts. I've not had an issue yet, and no traction control error messages yet either.

Just bought a set of these..now I'm thinking. Is the 2012 date code a concern? Does the rubber degrade at all in 4+ years in storage? I'm thinking these could last 2 years on my car which would put them at 6+ years old at the end of their life.

Then they wouldn't be 100 dollars a piece

Them being in climate controlled storage isn't going to hurt anything. Hell, there's PLENTY of people still rocking their STOCK tires on these cars from 06, 07, 08...

I figured that out (must be a reason for the low price) but worth asking. I did type " if possible "

I got two sets and LOVE them. If they still have them in stock, you should really grab a set. They blow everything else I've ever had out of the water.

For those who think they're "too big" there's no bulge at all. I've had too many friends check mine out and they all say the same thing. They look perfect. HUGE, WIDE, but no bulge.

It's not like we're putting a 315 on a 9" wide Camaro rim here. These tires are made for 12"-13" wide rims.

Ordered! Thanks for the heads up. Got caught in a heavy thunderstorm when I bought my Z06. It has 345 drag radials, so that was a white knuckle ride at 45mph on the highway.
