I ended up going with Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus tires. 275/40 R19's all the way around.

No rubbing issues at all. The slightly higher profile tires added about .3 inches to the ride height.

I just finished a 1200 mile road trip on these bad boys over the weekend, and experienced everything from warm dry pavement to rain, sleet, and snow. The tires performed flawlessly.

I make this trip once every 2 weeks and the comparison between the two tires is night and day. Compared to the Pirellis, the most noticeable thing (especially on a brembo car) was how much smoother the ride was. My girlfriend even noticed and asked if I had done something to "fix" the car lol. The second most noticeable thing was the sound...these tires brought the road noise down by roughly half of what it was (The roads in Oklahoma demonstrated this best). Third, I would dare say that these things grip better than the Pirellis in dry conditions. Even when my Pirellis were new, they were easy to slip around . I have to really really get aggressive for these Michelin's to break. I realize the slightly larger diameter tires with my 3.73's may be affecting this, but its not enough to to feel any negative performance .

Sooo for those looking for a quality tire for replacements, these certainly have done the job for me. The tires are supposed to last 45,000 miles, I'll be happy with 30K.

These are going to be my daily driver tires. My RTR rims will be mounted with high performance summer tires for the track =)
