best performance tires for 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 rear

Mike at revhighonline suggested toyo t1's and the reviews i have read seem to be great. I jsut would like to know if im geting tires that are great or if im getting tires that are "the best". if im shelling out this much money for rims and tires, i want the best that i can get.

I think the Pilot Sports are the best and the Toyos Proxes a good second. Both are very light and very sticky and are great for 85 degree days. 45 and below they both suck.

Re: best performance tires for 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 rear

are the 19inch pilot sports as big as the 18's on stock are? If they arent as low profile as the toyos, i would rather have those i think because they would fill the wheel whell up better and make the wheels look bigger. My friend has really low profiles on his 18's and they look so much smaller than my stock 18's with pilots on them. I guess im jsut gonna go look up some pics of 19inch pilots (assuming they make em). I wouldnt really care if they are a couple of lb's heavier than toyo's because i would like the look better i think. Feedback?
