Default Eddie, what tires would you recommand for 19" wheels?

For summer street tires. Something with strong sidewalls cuz I'll be running 235/35s 19s. I'm not planning to track my car so pretty much just need something with good street performance and will last me for a bit. What would you recommand?

Default Looking at the choices available from Tire Rack...

I'd get Yokohama AVS Sports. They've been a good tire for me.<ul><li><a href="http://www.tirerack.com/tires/Compare1.jsp?startIndex=0&width=235%2F&ratio=35&di ameter=19&search=true&pagelen=20&pagenum=1&pagemar k=1&do=Search">Tire Rack - 235/35-19</a></li></ul>

The Yokohama AVS are all season. Maybe check for the Pirelli PZero Rosso Asimmetrico or Bridgestone Potenza S-03 Pole Position

Default Wrong....AVS Sports are NOT all-season tires...

They are a Y-rated max performance tire. Also, Tire Rack doesn't list the S-03 or the PZero in the size he wants, so I doubt they are made in that size. If you would have looked at the link in my previous post, you would have realized that. 8^)

Default Your link doesn't work, and are you talking about AVS Black Sports? Those tires are too soft for Ca.

Two of my buddies had the AVS Black Sports on theirs cars and tore them up in about 4 months. They are VERY sticky tires, but a bit too soft for the hot summers in Ca. I need something that'll last a bit longer.

Default Link works for me...

Search for the size you want on www.tirerack.com. I only know of one AVS Sport...not sure what "AVS Black Sports" are. Your best bet would be to email or call Eddie directly (if he doesn't respond here). Sorry I couldn't help.

Default 235/35R19 is the correct size...

..but the applications are VERY limited, so is is mostly dependent upon the availability of the tires &amp; how long you have to wait.

Call me &amp; I can give you more info- # on sig!
