What tires should I get on my 20's?
 
So I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on a set of 20s for my '08 G35s Sedan.

I'm going to be running this set-up:
MRR GT1 20 8.5 F (35mm) and 20 10.0 R (42mm)

with 245/35/20 F and 275/30/20 R...

and as the title states, I'm not sure what brand/model of tires I should go with.

Here are the attributes I'm looking for in order of preference:
1. Quiet
2. Ride
3. Longevity
4. Price
5. Performance

I'm really concerned about the ride quality and tire roar, because I feel like the sedan already has alot of cabin noise.

Please help me decide!

Thanks, Cheers,

Rick

Pick one attribute that you really want because you will not find it all in one tire...

id get a smaller rim and a larger profile if #1 and 2 are most important, 19's and a 40 profile will ride MUCH better than a 20 with a 30 profile.

i have KDW2's, no complaints here, theyll cover 3 and 5 all over the boards!

Bridgestone RE960AS Pole Position is the tire for you. Its a high performance all season with a 40,000 mile treadwear warranty. Not much noise from them at all and they perform like any other high performance tire out there. The price is a little higher than most though.

06G35, where did you get those KDW's from? I am looking to buy those right now. Just looking for the best price. Thos ae=re the ones with the squiggly lines right?

I would say quiet is the most important attribute. I was looking at the Nitto 555 - since so many people have them, but I haven't read much feedback on them.

its a 275/245/35/19
and dont listen to anyone else who said "shoulda gone smaller" my thing is get as much tire as you can fit on the rim, and they look amazing and handle rediculously... i LOVE them, totally worth almost every penny, but i hate paying 1G+ on tires, especially when my old car was like 300-400

Nitto 555 has reasonable road noise, but youll go through them in 16000 miles easy. even less aggressive driving. id be amazed if you got 18000 outta em.

and as i said before... 20's and a smooth ride are mutually exclusive, you CANT have both.

What if I was to run 275/35/20's in the back? Also has anyone had any experience with these?
