For those still following this thread I'm going to get the new Continental Extreme Contact DW's in 245/40/19 and 275/35/19, their a new entry in the max performance category but are getting great reviews from all over. I'm going to order in a couple weeks because im not going to be around to install them for a while, but I'll post a review and pics once their on, thanks for the feedback

Been a fan of the 760. You'd have a bit better dry handling from the 760. The S-Drive is a great tire, but lacks a bit in the wet department. You can also rotate the 760 left/right as they are asymmetrical.

Runs pretty much neck/neck with the Eagle F1, Mich PS2, and P-Zero. Not a whole lot of performance difference between them. You could spend less for the Conti and get virtually the same as the more expensive competition.

the tires will be in 245/40/19 and 275/35/19 on my stock sport rims
number 2 is my preference.
not to mention, tire prices for the g's are out of control.

Hey guys + girls,

I have a 2008 G37s too and I just got the Hankook v12. The difference between the Bridgestones I had is night and day OR winter and summer. I love the Hankook.
1. Quiet
2. soft - makes the ride not too hard
3. I got them in 275X35X19 (Rear) and 245X40X19 (front)

Fraddy, I read an article from car & driver where they compare a bunch of sport tires and the Hankook killed the Yoko S. Drives so Ive been leaning in that direction as well.

Can I ask, did you use any spacers? Any rubbing at all?

Does your new tire size decrease fuel economy from stock at all?
