19" tires and wheels are the worst to buy, find, fit, pay for etc. Good riddens I say.

I see no point to shell out so much for a re-11 to only burn it up and need more down the road when 18's are lighter, cost less, and fit even big brake kits. I mean a re-11 is strictly a performace tire so why kill some of that going 19" when 18's are better all around? If you're gonna throw money away get racing 18's and keep your stock 19's with just some cheap summer tire that lasts 50,000 miles. In the end you'll come out ahead.
1. the car came with 19's
2. I purchased after market wheels that cost $3900
3. I'm not going to spend another $3900 on wheels just so i can buy 18" tires
4. I don't mind throwing away a little money......because race car!

honestly 19's look better than 18's on this car.

especially if one's running darker colored wheels with spokes that do not extend to the lip of the rim (like TE37 type, etc), wheels would look too small.

comparing my 19 SA55M's in gunmetal to my 19 Nismo wheels, the WEDS appear considerably smaller even though the spokes reach the lip.

Why so much attention to RE-11s?

The Dunlop Z2 are just as good (might even have better grip).

Unless you plan to upsize to 285 or 305.

ewww, wat's that on your splash guard? :ugh2:

our cars like a-symetrical tires for the reinforced inner belts.
