Anyone running TITAN-7 TS-5 in 19X9.5 +35 / 19X11 +40? Tire suggestions?

I shot him a PM a day or so ago but haven't heard from him. Looking at the MT ET Streets the rears are 305/35 which don't show up as a viable option when converting 275/35 in the tire calculator.

Anyone ever run the Bridgestone Potenza S-04 Pole Position? They come in 285/30R19 and 305/30R19 - which sounds like it would be perfect. I wonder how they hook up?

Yeah they're definitely larger rolling diameter, but not by all that much. The calculator is based on attempting to maintain a maximum 1.5% difference from stock and a 305/35 are ~3% larger (around 3/4") but you're looking at maximum traction not fuel economy or cornering capacity with those anyway. They will definitely hook up fantastic in a straight line though - just have a wet/cold setup in the garage.

Read through the reviews... don't know how accurate they are but seems many people love them even in comparison to the PSS under track conditions. They seem like a decent all-weather option, but maybe not as good on strip?

Michelin Pilot Sport 4S comes in 275/30 and 305/30 as well. I'm going to read up on reviews for them.

Yokohama Advan Neova AD08 R also comes in 275/30 and 305/30.

Those would be my choice... though based mostly on appearance and fitment options. I've seen a set on here somewhere... check through the pics thread or search.

here for the advan neova on my car

Heres mine work VsXX on advan neova tires

So I think I've narrowed my choices down to:

1. Yokohama Advan Neova AD08 R in 275/30R19 and 305/30R19.
2. Toyo r888r in 265/30R19 and 305/30R19

Anyone have any thoughts?
Anyone running the r88rs on your Supra - how loud are they on the street?

I doubt I go super crazy with mods, downpipe and tune - maybe meth.

Any ideas how big of a ride difference there would be between 265/35R19 and 285/35R19 vs 265/30R19 and 305/30R19?

Would traction off the line be about the same with R888R's in either case?

Titan 7 is much more responsive over IG. They recommended 275/30/19 and 305/30/19 on H&R Sport Springs. That's what I'm running, using Michelin PS4S.

Maybe I'll try rolling with the Yokohama Advan Neova AD08 R in 275/30R19 and 305/30R19 and see how well they hook.

The problem is in those sizes the only options I"m finding are the ADVAN NEOVA AD08 R and PILOT SPORT 4S. Not sure how well those would hook off the line.

I would contact Titan 7 over IG and ask for their input based on a specific tire model you're targeting.

They responded on facebook - "275/30/19 and 305/30/19 - Some do 255/35/19 and 295/30/19 or 305/30/19"

I just don't see any great options in 275/30/19 and 305/30/19. Looks like the POTENZA RE-71R do come in 255/35/19 / 305/30/19.

Now I'm looking at R888R's 265/35R19 up front and 305/30R19 in the rear after talking to someone at a tire shop. That's a closer diameter match front to rear than doing 265/30R19 up front evidently. I'm getting closer I think!
