Nitto NT05 is the best street tires. Used to have traction problem on first and 2nd gear on stock conti 5p but with Nitto NT05 car just hook and go. Road noise is crazy plus it don't like cold/wet weather.

On a 9" rear with an offset of 54 (standard for 19" OEM), I had a 275 and it was rubbing on the inner side. I put a 10mm spacer and problem resolved.
