235/35/19 S03's.... vs 245/35/19 Toyo T1-s = ???? (performance wise)

Hey guys, I was just curiuos, what you guys recommend in terms of better performance.

I realize the size closer to stock diameter would be 235/35...however im just looking for best handling setup.

235/35/19 S03's or 245/35/19 t1-s Toyo

S03's are supposed to be much better than the T1-s...however, what would benefit me more?

The SO3 tire benefits in 235/35...or the extra 10mm of the toyo t1-s.

245/35/19 SO3 is NOT an option.

This is for a 19x8.5 rim with 45 offset. Keep rubbing out of the equation, i can fix any rubbing issues.

Re: imho.. toyo t1-s

are the best tires i've ever driven on. Kind of biased since it's on my car, but i'm on my 2nd set and can't see myself wanting any other tire. They handle like a dream.

2-cents. i currently have 235/40/18 on my car.. they work well.

toyos

Im currently running 225/35/19 toyo proxies on my axis 7s. Toyo tires are good and not that expensive, and I havent had any problems so far.

I have a smaller width, becuase I dropped my car w/ neuspeed springs/bilstein shocks, and I didnt want any rubbing.
