Yokohama S Drive in 245/40 and 275/35
I'm looking to put these on my stock 19" wheels. I've read good things about this tire and these sizes...
245/40 R19
275/35 R19
Now my next question to ask...where's the best/cheapest place to find them. I found them on Tire Rack but I think i can get a better price elsewhere.
Thanks for your help.

I liked the tires better than the OE Bridgestones. The Yokos were quieter, better ride, close to equal dry cornering, better wet cornering especially as they got worn.

The size was the perfect +0 size IMO. I liked them a lot. I'll see if I can find any photos of them on the car but I don't think I have any where you can actually see what they look like.

I have Sumitomo HTR Z III right now because they are the tires that came on the wheels I bought and they were almost brand new so I didn't want to waste money replacing them. They are much better than I thought they'd be. I like the Yokos slightly better because they seem to be a tiny bit quieter and maybe better wet traction, but both are a good tire and a good value IMO. If money isn't a factor in the decision, I'd go with the Yokos.

I just got a sick deal through discount tire. $800 shipped with stems. He took $52 off my order just because I said I want a good deal
Thanks again

I just had these exact tires and specs put on a few weeks ago. So far they are really great. Very quite and better ride compared to the stock bridgestones. Traction is good too wet and dry. On the track they aren't quite what the bridgestones were at the start, were breaking loose in corners a little easier, but once they got warm they were great and handled just as well as the stock potenzas.
