tire and wheel help
So in 2 weeks I have a set of the new '05 OEM rays 19'' wheels coming in. I need help with picking out tires for these wheels. I'd like to go for the largest size possible. The wheels are 19'' x 8'' front and 19'' x 9'' rear. The dealer told me that I shouldn't have any issues with putting a 245 series on the front and 275 on the rear. So my first question is are these series tires ok for the width of the wheel? Second, I have to pick out the tires. I've spent time today looking at 3 different brands of tires and reading reviews on them.
Here are my opts so far:
Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 245/ 35/ 19 fr x 275/ 35/ 19
Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 same size as ^
Bridgestone Potenza S-03 Pole Position same size as ^
These are all max summer performance tires. I'd like 40 series but I can't seem to find ay 40s in the widths in a 19'' wheel. I just wanted to 40s for a little more side wall but it's no bg deal.
Pls if you have any suggestions about other tires let me know. thx
