Need help here. Please read.
360 forged is doing a setup for me but having real trouble finding the right tires, allowing for proper offsets and fittings..I don't particularly want runflats............my priority is a year round summer tire(FL based) that are really quiet.
rim sizes.....19x9 F
" " 20x11 B
Tire sizes needed(according to Jordan at 360 forged)
255/30-20
305/25-20
My first choice and the one I really want are the Michelins PS2 Sports but I can't find them(although there is some type of rumor according to Kerbecks anyway, that they are bringing something new out very soon)
Jordan is suggesting the Nitto INVOS that makes 285-30-20 which will fit, but it’s not the ideal size. They do have the Nitto NEO-Gen, which makes the 305-25-20 which he thinks would be more appropriate. I am not so sure about this.
Many reviews here have been about the Toyos, Falkens and others, but sure would appreciate help from experts on this subject(and my knowledge particular with dealing with the offsets is limited) and want the right tires. Don't mind going 19's in front with 20 backs or 19,s all round if the setup is correct.
The wheels are painted and ready and all I need now are to get the right tires.
Thx.

I have Nittos' with 20's all the way around, I had the same concerns as you, but i relied on Jordens' advice and turns out the tires he recommended were the same height as factory, and i love them.
