Conclusion on tires, wanting confirmation

[Benjilis]

So after a lot of research and helpful advice I came down to the conclusion of these 2 tire sets. I’m just wanting to make sure that the sizing is correct before I order anything as I don’t want a bad ride and handling…

For the summer:
Front: Michelin Pilot Sport 4s 275/35/19
Rear: Nitto NT555r2 305/35/19
$1500

Cold months:
Continental Extreme Contact DWS06 plus
Front: 265/35/19
Rear: 285/35/19
$1080

The reason I’m going with all seasons and not winter tires for the colder months are because I live in Missouri and it doesn’t snow a lot. I think just this year we have had 2 snow falls and 1 coming up next week. I also live in a nice and populated area where the streets are plowed very often.

accepting all thoughts and suggestions in regards to sizing and experiences.
The reason I didn’t go with toyo r888r is that they arnt in my size unless I went with a 285.
The dws 06 plus seem to be better overall for the area I live and are softer so I’m thinking that can lay down more traction than the Michelin as4’s

PS: I know March 1st Michelin will release the pilot sport 5’s but their site doesn’t show anything past a 255/35/19.

For the front I wouldn’t go past a 265/35R19. If you drive aggressive it will rub.

For the rear a 285/35R19 is fine if you’re stock. Its also acceptable for winter setups. Any power adders and a 295/35R19 is the minimum I would recommend for summer use.

I run stock size MPS4S all around and I can tell you it’s night and day difference.

DWS06 are sound tires.

Are you tuned?

Hmmm well that’s weird you say not to go past 265 because I was looking everywhere and saw people
Go to 275… what did I miss?

Im also not lowered

For most it should be fine. That’s why I mentioned aggressive driving. I’ve seen 275/35R19s rub at stock height here locally during our Tijuana, MX runs.

I’m running the same specs for the dsw06 on the stock wheels. They’re amazing in NY, but sometimes when I make a sharp u turn and turn the wheels all the way I noticed that it rubs a little bit in the front. Still an amazing set overall

Nope, stock rims and suspension. Roads are shit in NY so might have been the combination of bumpy roads and sharp turning that caused the rubbing

You should post your experience once you get them. I drive my car almost every day so I worry about getting caught out with just a little snow on the ground. I'm especially interested in how your Continental Extreme Contact DWS06 plus work.

Being that summer is coming up. I won’t be getting them until probably October. So the Michelin ps4s will be my first purchase
