"Decent" All-Season Radial in 19"???
I know that "All-Season" tires are by definition a compromise. That being said, I live in the midwest where we get sub-zero winters and triple digit summers. I do not 'track' my car. For my relative sedate needs, I have had pretty good luck with Pirelli P-Zero M/S tires as an all-around choice. However, I am currently running staggered 18s and want to step up to 19s. I cannot seem to find 265/35/19 or 275/35/19 size in any of the upper make all season tires (Pirelli, Michelin, Goodyear, etc.) Does this mean I will end up keeping my 18s and putting dedicated snow tires on them for the winter and finally getting a set of 'real' summer performance tires for the 19s?? Might not be a bad move, really. Anyway, I just wondered if anyone had any luck finding "decent" all seasons in 19". Thanks!!

Before I recently stepped up to 20's on my E55, I had a staggered 19" setup with all-season Bridgestone Potenza RE960AS Pole Position's on my ride. They were fairly reasonable in price and I liked them. From a treadwear perspective though, I think I got about 13k-15k miles out of the rears (but I'm a little "aggressive" in my driving habits ) The grip was pretty good though and they weren't excessively noisy. The Falkens that I am currently running seem to be a lot noisier than the Bridgestones were...
