Hre front wheel came broken after the shipper unloaded her with a flat. 4 mandrus wheels on craigslist and pss tires cost less than repairing the single hre..

For an 03 sl55, what tires do you recommend for 19x8.5 front and 19x9.5 rears?

I run Bridgestone Pole Position S04's in the stock tire size

I have a set of the Potenza S04 on my car with about 18k miles and they still dont need to be replaced

Im looking at 255/35 and 285/35 michelin pilot super sports.

I run nitto 555 295/45/18 front and 555r 305/45/18 rear on my other car and love them.

Im removing the HRE wheels with 275/30/20 and 305/25/20 tires now. (They werent my choice)

285/30 is the size that you need; I don't know if they come in PSS size

Hmm any particular reason to choose a 30 over a 35?

over 40k has gone into repairing wheels on this car because the original owner just had to have 20s... id rather run more rubber if at all possible, but im not looking for tire rub... id like to lower the car up to an inch if it wont cause any problems

35 on front and 30 on rear are the correct ratios. never had any problems with them. Bad choice is 30 front and 25 rear

Ya, ive read your other posts on the topic okbarnett.

Any problems running a 295/30/19 rear on a 9.5 wide wheel?

Not recommended from Michelin's specs chart on their website

Well i ended up with another member's mandrus wilhelms

I was going 255/35 front and 285/35 rear, but my shop recommended against the bridgestones...

So we went with the 255/35 and 295/30 pilot super sports.

I run 295/45 and 305/45 on a 9.5 wheel for my truck and have 0 issues.
