This may be a stupid question, but did they skip 19's or do they have them?

No 19s as of now. Haven't heard that they are planning on any either. Probably don't want to compete against OEM and the new PS2s coming out.

375/20-21 sounds like a great FGT tire.

Looking nice and performing are 2 different things. I too am interested in the treadwear. My Sumo's are perfect with decent traction, wondering if these will hold up long.

The Kumhos I'm excited about are the Ecsta V710's. The 345/18 and 305/18 sizes should be available any time now.

Nice tires, but who chose the wheels for that SRT? They're awful!

Once again, Austin is right on the money. Those wheels are gruesome and embarrassing.

I think 21's on a viper look too big. They need to make a 375-25-20 in the sticky compound. That would be just right for me.

I wish more companies made tires in the stock Viper 18" and 19" sizes. I'd sure appreciate more choices. I guess I should just be thankful the PS2s are coming.
