Hi all,
I am going to be replacing my tires on my VXR8 and have decided after some research to go with Michelin Pilot Super Sports.
The standard tire sizes for stock 19" wheels I believe are 245/40R19 98Y front and 275/35R19 96Y rear.
I have Pedders coilovers on the car and so it is lower than stock, I will post a pic below.
A few questions..
Does the 98Y/96Y number matter as I think it is different on the MPSS?
I have read that MPSS can be wider than other tires with the same quoted sizing, is this true?
Can you fit wider tires front and rear with the stock 19" rims and lowered as mine is?
With all of the above in mind what sizings would you suggest and where would you buy them (I've heard Camskill is good)?
Sorry for all the questions, any help is greatly appreciated!
