2012 GT Brembo Pkg Tire Question
I apologize if this has been covered, I'm on my phone with very little service and I need to get some feedback by Monday. I have an opportunity to get a great deal on 4 Nitto NT05 275/30/19. I have a '12 GT with the Brembo pkg. and lowering springs (1.5"). My question is two fold, first what do people think of these tires on all four corners? Secondly, would I experience any fitment or rubbing issues, particularly on the front?
Thanks guys.
Thanks guys.

The tire size, 275/30/19, is only 25.1" tall, which is around 2" shorter than the factory tire height. You will notice more tire-to-fender gap, and if you are already lowered, this would lower you car another 1" overall. Unless you are going to the track, I don't think this would be a preferred tire size.
As stated, a 275/40/19 would be more agreeable to the car and most people at around 27.7" tall, which is the same height as the non-Brembo Premium 19" all-season tire, 245/45/19.
