Need suggestion for NEW TIRE

Hi All,

I hv got my new rims VOLK LE37 with OEM 19" tires on it for a while however, and the tires is coming to the end of it, and sooner or later will need to replace it.

I am runing F:19X8.5J with OEM tire 225/35-19
R:19X9.5J with OEM tire 255/30-19
as i know,i hv to run F:235/35/19 for 19X8.5J
R:265/30/19 for 19X9.5J am i right?

Also what is the BEST value tire?(low price with high Performance)?
PS: I DON"T WANT RFT anymore

Thanks in advance.

HAHAHAHA... Dave, how the heck do you come to this forum and meet a whole bunch of people whom are all loosely associated to you?!

I've owned RE01R, AD07, Z1*, AD08, and wanted to try RE11. I know Philip would highly recommend T1R, but it's an older tire by now. You can think about R888, which camber settings etc are more suiting for street driving than aggressive track driving. If you compare Yoko tires VS Bridgestone, I would say go for Bridgestone for the added performance, or go with Yoko for the reduced cost. Depends on what you want. Z1* was a really good tire for its price, but performance only lasts for the first 1-2k kms... it feels a lot like AD07 to me, but for its price, I wouldn't complain.

haha Derek, i don't know why i met many ppl here,you got the say i m a lucky guy^^V
i know R888 is good,but it's should be too$$$(i hvn't check the price yet=.=), coz i don't want to spend too much$$$ on tires(i am a poor guy), i am not fan of Bridgestone,coz it not work well on my 350Z b4. how$ u pay for your AD08?it's not bad right?
