You are right about the different tire manufacturers. I like S03s and the side profile tends to be less round compared to say Toyo. What wheel and offsets do you have for the front and rear? Also, if you lowered your car, what suspension do you have?
..........I have Lorinser LM-5 wheels which are a direct bolt on. They are 18x8.5 rear and Front. A few weeks after I paid an arm and a leg for my wheels I found a guy selling a replica on ebay for cheap. They look pretty genuine except that I don't think the Lorinser center caps fit. Anyway, now I check on ebay before I buy anything expensive.

What about PZero Rosso? Does it have wider width compared to other tire manufacturers? I've been mentioning so many times about my wheels.
It is 19x8.5F ET 35 and 19x9.5R ET35, I tried to put 245/35/19 and 275/30/19 ( I like wide tires and thought that it could fit, unfortunately,........ it didn't).
Disc Tire told me to go with 235/35/19 and 255/30/19 because Pirelli doesn't produce 265/30/19 for the PZero. So, I wrapped the wheels with that.
It surprised me because the front still rubbed (or if it wasn't rubbed, there was only a couple mm, maybe 2 or 3 mm gap between the tires and the strut). I forgot the history about the rear wheels.
Do you guys think I should go with shallower tires?
How about 225/35/19 and 255/30/19 for the back?
Thank you,

With those wheels, you should go with 235/35-19F and 265/30-19R Bridgestone S-03 and you should be OK.
