Tire Help

I have a 2009 g37s coupe and need to replace the rear tires. My front tires are fine. I'm looking to move to 275 35 19. I have the Bridgestone RE050A.

I called discount tire today. They actually have a set of barely used Nitto Motivo with 245 40 19 for front and 275 35 19 for rear. Total out the door for $744.

$150/tire seems reasonable to me. Do any of you have any suggestions for replacements and or have an opinion on Nitto Motivo?

Thanks!!

I have those on my xS sedan and love them. No issues in heavy rain and I ran them through 5 inches of snow last winter with no issues. Great handling yet quiet.

I've had them on for almost 20K and they still look practically new. As I recall, they weren't much more than 150/tire- at least in my 18 inch size. Personally, I'd get another set in a heartbeat.

I did it! So far so good! Love the ride now and the new look. Looks really aggressive. The tires were really brand new. I couldn't pass it up for $744 out the door for plus size tires. Thanks for input.
