Hi Discount Tire,
Glad to find you guys posting here. There's a store just down the road in Reno so you'd be a convenient source for new tires.
I've got a 2011 Mustang GT and I'm running the 2011 FRPP GT500 Performance Pack Wheels in 19x9, 19x10.
Current tires are the BFG KDW2 in 275/35 and 295/35.
I like the looks and performance of these tires, but dislike the increased cabin noise. I believe no other manufacturer makes a 295/35/19 tire, correct? I'd like to stay as wide as possible back there, as that was the main reason for changing wheels from stock. Can I go 305/30 on my 10" wheels?
I do not track my car in any fashion at this time. It is a street car only. A high (relatively) treadwear rating to get +/-20,000mi and near-equivalent grip/performance to the BFG would be an ideal tire. Do I have any hope?
I'm looking for a way to NOT go with 255/285 tires like most folks settle for on my wheel set... I love the look of the wider tires.
Any thoughts and/or recommendations would be appreciated! If you can ping the tire manufacturers to take note of the increasing variety of 19x10 wheels out there, and the resulting need for more 295/35/19 tires, that'd be great,too. ;-)
Semper Fidelis!
