Michelin Pilot PS2 vs. Nitto Invo

[JohnC]

Hi Guys...

this is for a high horsepower(600+hp) cuda project (e-body)...not a huge car, but not small either.

With all the knowledgeable guys around here i need some help.

Wheels will be 19x10 front and 20x12 rear...

I have gone back and forth deciding between these two tire options:

michelin pilot ps2 275/35/19 front and 335/30/20 rear

or

nitto invo 285/30/19 front and 345/25/20 rear

suggestions/opinions welcome...

Thanks

I can give a little advice on sizes...
I have a set of Pirelli 275/30 R19 and 345/25 R20's and would recommend them for a 9.5" rim and 11.5" rim (maybe 12"). I had them on a 12.5" rim and they sucked in too much for my taste. This set is now on a 11.5" rim and has a perfectly vertical sidewall.

Once the Pirelli's were taken off my 19x9.5 and 20x12.5 Forgeline wheels I needed a new set and went with the 275/30 R19 and 335/30 R20 PS2's and couldn't be happier! The PS2 335's are almost 1.5" wider than the 345 Pirelli's and I would assume the Nitto's are on the smaller side like the Pirelli's.

All of the reviews that I have read say the PS2's are some of the BEST tires made.

I think the 275/35's on the front will be too much side wall (plus I don't know that they exist, they are not listed on Tirerack), but I like the raked look. Look at Killer 69's Camaro (http://www.lateral-g.org/members/foster/)
He is running the 335/30 R20 PS2's (28" tall) and I think 245/35 R19's (25.8" tall).

Good Luck!
