Default 355/30R19 P-Zero CLOSEOUT $102 NEW

Just an FYI
$102 each for 2012 production on tire-rack.

I started another thread asking if these will fit but i found 1 or 2 people confirming they do

I bought a set, just because. Don't need them, but who knows when you may need to have a tire smoking day.

Not necessarily. Depends on your ride height, and your front size.

OEM rear/front diameter ratio is 1.043. Many have had no problems with traction control warning messages as long as you stay within 3-4 percent of that (.03-.04).

I've been running 345/30-19 and 285/35-18 combo for a couple years with no problems. That's a 1.05 r/f.

355 and 285 combo will be 1.059 Ratio, so I doubt it will yield any problems.

I have factory 275s in the front. I hope this doesn't put me over the edge.

He will not be ok. Even 345/30-19 and 275/35-18 will disrupt the active handling with any sort of aggressive driving.

Hoosier A7 and R7 are rated at 40
Michelin Sport Cups are rated at 80

Soft Rubber = tacky = good traction = low tread life...

Well of course I know that, lol. I was saying for a street tire it's something I certainly wouldn't run.
