Looking to buy new tires, anyone has these, how do u guys rate these tires?

 

These are the ones that come stock on the 6mt 19". They have a horrible tread life and a bit loud compared to some other tires. on the other hand the ride isnt bad and neither is thier grip.

 

PPs aren't stock. The regular 050As are.

I haven't had any experience with the PPs.

 

ya i know i have those tires right now, with stock coupe 19s on my car. But i was wondering about the tire that i mentioned.

 

The PP is going to perform better than the RE050A's that come with the stock 19's but dont expect any more treadlife out of them. The PP is going to be a little better in every category over the regular RE050
-GP-

 

Are these the runflats? If so, I had those in 275/35/19 on the rears of my Volks. They weren't too loud compared to other tires in this class. Dry grip was great, but not impressed in the wet.

 

I'm running the re050a runflats on the rear right now. They are MUCH quieter than my previous S03's were, and there is still plenty of grip. not to mention the runflats are ALOT beefier than the regular tire... its like running one size higher. I initially had no problem with rubbing but after switching it got pretty bad. just a warning! don't know about tread life yet but they seem to be wearing pretty fast compared to my previous set...

 

245/40/19's are on sale at tirerack.com for 169.00, are they worth buying?

im sitting on the fence right now since the price is so cheap

also, do i have to stagger my tires or can i go with the 245/40/19 all around

any help is appreciated!

thanks

 

Man. 169 is CHEAP! I wonder why they're closing out on them. Too bad they don't have them in 225 40 19 for the same price.

 

Dang! How did I miss this???
They only show the 245/35 19s on sale now.

 

i can't believe BStone is going to discontinue the S03's and have them
replaced with the 050's... the 050's aren't much better than S03, still
noisy, still heavy, and still expensive.

 

i searched but couldn't find much on it do 225/40R19 S0-03s exist ? If not what can I fit on the OEM front rims? or can I just get the rears ? would it affect handling alot if i were to only change the rears?
