Question Tires for 19' Sport Coupe Wheels on Sedan.

What brand tires and sizes do you guys recommend I use for the Coupe Sport Wheels on my Sedan RWD? I was thinking about running the same OEM sizes, but I wanted to hear different ideas or different things people have done.

I would stick with oem for the sedan. I had 275/35 19 on the rear and stuck out a little. The 245's are pretty flush.

Yeah that's what I might do. I received my Eibach springs today. I'm missing a rear rim and I'm having trouble finding one to buy by itself. I thought I had the hook up at my local dealer, but went today and realized they were selling me a front instead of a rear. Now I have to go hunting for one again, I refuse to pay 600 bucks for a brand new one.

I just installed the 19 in coupe wheels with Hankook Evos V12 (225/45/19 fr and 245/40/19 rear) on my '12 sedan RWD. I had heard good things about these tires and they were priced right! So far so good.

I might run this same set up. Either Hankook or General. Leaning more torwards Hankook though because of all the good reviews.

Has anyone tried putting a set of four REAR coupe wheels on a RWD sedan?

I have the staggered setup now, but hate having to dismount tires to rotate them side-to-side.

I've always wondered if I could just run a set of rears at all four corners. Also, the fronts without a spacer are more tucked than the rears. Not that big of a deal, but I notice it.
