looking for new tires

I am about to buy tires for my 19s.
The sizes are:
235/35-19 - front
255/30-19 - rear
Dunlop SP Sport Maxx or Toyo T1r. If u guys know any other brands that have this size combo let me know. I am shopping around and if any of u guys have good price post here or PM i will pick them up.

You got some new wheels Vlad?

I would contact F1 Motorsport. They are in North Hollywood too.

You sure you can get the 255 to fit back there?

I always thought of running 235-40-19s all around on my coupe 19s

Blue G35 coupe sent ya.....may not help but WTF! Have Jr. do the install

yes, u can, it is going to sit very agressive, probably as agressive as u can with -33 offset rim. with stock 245s, it had inch gap bitween the tire and the fender(mine is completely shaved). So 255s will be perfect. I don't see the point of running 235s unless u don't want to touche the fenders. Even then it ruins the look especially if the car is lowered.

235-35 and 255-30 are way too thin for the G.
I would go with 245-35 and 265-35 they are still thinner than OEM but better than what you gonna get.

Go to this web. www.wheelsmaster.com

mine is a sedan, i dont know if u noiticed it or not, besides the stock coupe wheel is 8.5 inch with -33 offset which means widest u can go on that rim is 255. Trust me it lines up with the fender as agressive as u can get on a sedan. Thanks for the link.

Thanks, I have had the dog for almost a year. He is a year and one month old. Dobbies are dogs with a lot of character, im sure u know. My friend liked the dog soo much that he went and got a dob puppy and the weird thing is that dog reminds me of my dogs puppy years. I got the dog from a breeder about an hour away from my place. If u want more details i will find out the exact location and let u know.
This dog has been through a lot and here is the thread

Yea I've never heard about them until recently. After browsing tirerack.com, I couldn't believe the pricing on these tires and the great reviews. Seemed like everyone gave it 5/5 stars. General's website recommends not using their tires for snowy conditions. Tires are very sticky and comfort level's is actually pretty good.
