Stock wheel tire sizes
So for those of you that are running a 345 in the back on the stock 19x12 wheel what exact sizes are you running front and rear. I am needing tires soon and want to go to a 345 rear but dont want to upset the active handling. TIA!

I’ve had 275’s the entire time with 345’s in the rear, no issues to speak of. Now I’m a straight line guy 1/4,1/2 and rolls. Not sure if it would be a problem carving up windey roads or not....I probably be dead if I tried lol.

Last summer I put a set on my '06 Z and had difficulty finding the rears with a current mfg date. America Tire received a set for me but it was 13 months old and had to ship another pair from Florida to us here in the Bay Area. The info I was hearing back then was that Michelin was discontinuing The Pilot SS. My old car had no problems with the computer not accepting. As another possibility, you probably do know that through Tire Rack the Toyo Proxes R888R are available in this size, yet pretty soft for the street with a tread wear rating at 100.

Toyo R888R is another option in those sizes or Nitto I personally have NT555 G2’s up front and NTO5R out back. If it’s a multi use car the toyo is the best you’ll get for both.
