19" Tire Recommendation

I need some sticky tires for the TechArt wheels on my GT2. Does anyone know of a tire that has a treadwear rating under 100 for a 19" wheel? I checked tire rack and a few catalogs a freind of mine had, but I've found nothing sticky in my size.

Did you try Michelin Pilot Sport PS2's??? These are always a crowd favorite.

I've got those now. The treadwear rating is 220 though and I want something stickier.

I didn't see a 19" application for the Yoks?

Oops.. I do see the 19" stuff, but nothing nearly wide enough for the GT2. I'm running 315/25x19 right now and the Yoks only got to 285/40

The last set I ordered directly from Gert at Carnewal board sponser click on the link to the right. Gert is great, excellent service. Lickity split delivery times even though you are ordering overseas. He usually has the 315/25/19 sizes.

If you want 315/25 19, you are left with PS2's or Conti Sport Contact 2 if you want that much grip. PS2's are the best.

Give me a call.

I've got the Yokohamas on my car, 315/25-19 on the rear, and I love them. Discount Tire told me they could order them if I needed another set.
