255/35/19 Tire with Wider Tread Width

[jkc1985]

I search the wheel stickies and couldn't come up with anything. I purchased a set of Avant Garde M510's. They are 19x9.5 ET40. Currently I am on stock suspension, but will most likely slapping from H&R OE springs to get it a bit lower.

I am not CRAZY about the stretched look. Can you guys recommend some tires with a slightly wider tread width? I'd prefer A/S tires, but am open to summer tires. Just not sure what I should get keeping in mind 9.5 inch wide wheels, ET40, and wanting to go lower.

Will a 355/35/19 Continental DWS look stretched a lot? Will I have to have some stretch to get the wheels and lowering to work without rubbing?

Tirerack doesn't list the treadwidth on the DSWs, but the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3 are supposed to be awesome for an A/S tire and has a 9.4" wide tread. The Hankook
Ventus S1 noble2 is 9.6" wide at the tread and the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric All-Season is 9.5" are looking for in an A/S. That being said the DSW has a 10.3" section width so I am not sure you are going to get an improvement on that without switching wheels.

Can you post some pics of how it looks? I just got some Bridgestone LM-32 winter tires mounted on AG M590s of the same size and while they look a hair stretched they look awesome. Even the guys at the auto shop couldn't stop talking about them when I picked them up from getting mounted. That being said I wont have the car to put them on for a couple more weeks to see how they look on the S4.

Hope that helps.

Sure! It probably won't be for a 2 or 3 weeks. Just ordered the wheels, and starting my search for tires. I am thinking I might just go with the Continental DWS. It looks like all tires will have some stretch.

Will be a few weeks before I can get them on the car, but here are the wheels and tires (sorry for the crappy cell phone pics)...

Looks good! Where in virginia are you? What tire shop did you get them mounted at?

[mmmkam]

Near Chantilly. I just had tirerack ship the tires to Curry's and then dropped the wheels off to get them mounted.

I assume you are NOT running these a/s in winter. Why not get summers then? 510 are awesome. With a little stretch (255 on 9.5) lowering will not be a problem. I don't like stretch AT ALL but 265 doesnt bug me. Conti DW is a nice wide tire. i just had a set and they were really good combo value and performance.

[jkc1985]

I will be running the tires year around. I would like to have summers and winters, but its just not feasible for me at the moment and don't want to deal with two sets. I may be moving from the east coast to the midwest, so I feel A/S tires may be the best for my situation at the moment.

You know... there is always 265-35-19 and 275-30-19.... I would not go 275 on ET40 though.
