Sorry, I've not seen any 19 inch drag radials before. Nitto, BFG and Mickey Thompson make 14-18 and 20 but oddly no 19". If you planning on using them at the track only, your best option is to find a pair of 18" wheels for the back and shod them in whatever you can get. I hear the Mickey's are the best drag radial but Nitto is very popular as well.

Toyo has R888's.
they got 235/35/19, 265/30/19, 295/30/19, 305/30/19 for 19" wheels.

Michelin has Pilot Sport Cup's in 19" as well.

if it is for the drag race, then like EcruisinUSA said, Mickey Thompsons are your best bets. I don't know if they make tires for 19" wheels though.

The Pirelli PZero Corsa is available in most of those sizes... What type of use were you looking to get out of them?

PM me for pricing....

i see. like alex says i guess your best bet is to go with Pirelli PZero Corsa System.
it seems like they have 255/35/19 but no 265/35/19.
they do have 295/30/19 so they are your best bets!

have fun and be safe at the racetrack. AMG can be quite a handful!

Alex, do they make 265/35/19 Corsa's?

I have only been able to find 265/30/19.

Do you also know anyone makes a Racing Semi-Slick like the Hoosier R6 for a 20" rim?

Michelin makes PSC+ / N-spec in 20" sizes.
but they only have 245/30/20 and 315/25/20...

Also Toyo R888 comes in either 285/35/20 or 315/30/20.....

Unfortunately, the Corsa only is available in a 265/30/19 and a 255/35/19

As far as a 20" The only thing that comes close to is the Pirelli PZero Corsa in a 245/35/20 and 295/30/20 and the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup in a 245/35/20 and 315/25/20...

I would be happy to answer any questions anyone may have.... TAG Motorsports's parent company owns 18 retail tire/service locations in the San Diego Area with sister stores across California bringing the total to 70 locations... We are very competitive with the pricing and can help you out with anything you need!

Thanks for the replies.

When I get a bit further along I will start reaching out.

My concern is running a 265/30/19 front tire where a 265/35/19 is suposed to be. How much of a problem is the smaller diameter going to be?

It is a difference of about 13mm correct?

Would I be better to replace the 265/35/19 with a 285/30/19?

This is for a front axle and can you fit a 285/30/19 on a 9.5" wide rim?
