whoops.

You went and spent money on wheels without any idea what tires are available to fit them. I hate when this question comes up and it comes up all the time. Pick tires first, then wheels that optimize the tires. Tires do the work. Wheels are lipstick and glitter.

Ideally, probably a 285/35R19 and a 305/35R19 is ideal. A 305/30 is shorter than the front so the rake is wrong.

You didn't say anything about what you want in a tire. At least you should decide if you want a summer tire (i.e. a 3 season tire) or an all-season. Michelin Pilot Sport (MPSS) has those sizes. MP4S doesn't offer that rear size. I think you can do an MP4S with a 295 rear. Continental may have ECS in those sizes.

Dear god whatever you do avoid the Nittos. They're terrible.

Appreciate your feedback. It’s just a weekend fun cruiser car so no track days. I have the ZL1 for that. I have PS4S on the Camaro for the summer tires. And don’t mind those. So you’re saying the rake will look funny with a 305/30? I live in Texas so winter is mild here. And it’s not a bad weather winter/summer car either.

What’s your qualm with the NT 555 RII tires? I have them on my Camaro and they’re wonderful.
