19"/20" Tire Recommendations

[jpas]

What size, brand and type of tires are people running on their SRT's with 19x10 fronts and 20x13 rear rims?

I am leaning towards the Michelin PS2 or the Pirelli Rosso tires.

Thanks

[Cody@A.R.T.]

That's really all your choices.

Which provides better traction, the PS2 or the Rosso?

Cody has the taller tires on his car...

and they look great! All the looks of the lowering while maintaining the driveability of a stock height car...

cannot help you on the traction as I was wondering the same thing...

As far as traction, we have had great success with the PS2 in the 335/30/20 rear.

Both are excellent tires. The Pirelli looks great - but is a MUCH lower profile (345/25/20) and I would only recommend this tire on an SRT with an aftermarket adjustable suspension.

I am a Michelin Dealer and I will match or beat any internet price on tires.

Very well put Anthony. The 335/30/20's are a ton of tire for a GTS. They look better on the SRT's. After three sets, I still prefer the Pirelli's.

I like the car very low. I actually keep selling my damn wheels, and keep having to replace the tires. The PS2's do have better grip, but I still like the profile of the rosso's. If you are keeping the stock ride height, do the PS2's. If you are lowering the car with KW's or Motons, go with the rosso's.

Okay, any legitimate site. I will beat TireRack pricing. How's that?

I also am a BF Goodrich dealer.

I keep hearing that somebody is coming out with some sticky 19" tires (and corresponding 18" for the fronts) soon. Kumho? Pilot Sport Cup? Inquiring minds want to know!

i know nitto is coming out with a very sticky 345/ 25/ 20" tire this year. they will be comparable to the pilot cups. they had them on the pagani zonda in the nitto booth at sema last year. they are just waiting for dot approval. i was told that they should have them available by august.

I think the PS2's are the better tire and the taller tire is good if you are making over 600 rw hp. If you are under that power level then the Pirelli should work fine if you chose that tire. But the PS2 is the better tire.

[jpas]

Thanks for your help, I think I will be going with the PS2 tires for now.
