My G burning lots of rubber before tire change (vid)
Well guys my rear tires were on their way out, and I needed new ones. I put it off for a little bit and then bit the bullet and got 4 new Toyo T1r (245/35/19 and 275/30/19) for my stock rims. The sizes fit perfectly and they perform/look AWESOME. Anyway, I figured I could bake my old ones a little bit before I took them off, so here is a video. I had to reduce it in quality to make it downloadable (it was 364 MB in orig format, and is now 7MB)

And for pics of the toyos on my car see this thread towards the bottom: https://g35driver.com/forums/wheels-tires/104818-max-tires-19-inch-oem-wheels-06-a.html
Let me know what you think!

Don't mean to be an *** but not only are your rear tires too wide, they're also too short. Since the wheels are so narrow, the contact patch won't be any larger than with 255s. Just added weight.

Ive been meaning to do it but I havnt had the car up on a lift yet. I would have done it when they were mounting the tires but I wasnt sure how the car would handle with the new tires. There is still some understeer without question.
