Tire Options

Greetings,
I have ordered a set of Alufelgen SF-71 Wheels in:
19x8 in the front ET45
19x9 in the back ET48

Next up tires...
What are your thoughts on 225/35/19 in the front and 265/30/19 in the back?
Is there a better fit that I should be looking at?

Also, I am looking at the following brands.
Yokohama S Drive
Toyo Proxey 4
Toyo T1 Sport
BFG KDW's

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Garage List
You may need a slight fender roll with 265/30 in the rear.

Continental Extreme Contact DWs come in those sizes, and I just ordered a set. Tirerack has the fronts, 225/35/19 for $105 on sale!! Rears, 265/30/19, are $243 each, so you get a set of 19" awesome rubber for around $700. You cannot lose.

I run the Conti DW's and love them. Mine are 225/40-18 front and 255/35-18 rear. I'm getting new rears tomorrow.
