As much as i'd like to drop my car, it would really help aero/handling/fuel economy, I really can't. My driveway is steep and the roads around here aren't great, with alot of steep hills and elevation change until you get out past city limits. Guys around here that own Vettes and such are always having a hard time in town. I tend to scrape that little plastic air dam or whatever about half the time I leave my driveway. I can't risk scraping the actual bumper.

I saved a few different Y-rated 275-40-19's on my favorites. Among them are Sumitomos, Hankooks and the Falken Azenis FK-453's.

I've seen the Hankook V12 and falken FK-452 for about 187/tire in 275/40/19. Seems like a pretty good deal.
