What 1life said. A 295/30 would work as well.

Would the 285/35/19 work on the stock rays rims?

kenchan · 01-19-2015, 11:58 AM

305 would be better.

285/35/19 is plenty sticky for stock-ish engine.

FairladyZ10PG · 01-20-2015, 03:34 PM

^True

but 305 looks better lol

Driftomodachi · 01-20-2015, 04:10 PM

305 looks pinched on the stock 10" wheels imo

Stock Nismo size 245/40/19 front and 285/35/19 rear

I switched from re-11's to S-04 and although pole position's are a great tire I do miss the stiffness of the re-11. I think I might go back to them if they are still around when the Z needs new tires.

Running 245/40/19 front and 285/35/19 rear on a 370z GT with the 19" Rays wheels is good yeah ?

Im thinking about getting RE11s in those sizes next month.

Yep. I have this setup and it works fine. Some will say bigger is better but honestly, unless you have forced induction, I don't see the advantage. The added un-sprung weight and increased rolling resistance out weighs the benefit IMO.
