295 tire on 19x11 or 315 tire on 18x11
i was wondering what u thought i dont plan on drag racing it but i was wondering what u guys thought if i just drive it a couple of days a week? i sorta want the staggered look but i dont know if i would want the bigger tire though and would u put drag radials on it if u just drive it around town mostly? i was looking at the bfg kdw2's for the 295 tire. any thoughts would be great! thanks

well if you get the 18s youre looking at bfg drags in 315/30/18 and youll get about 4k without burnouts..
19s, dont know what drag radials.. but just get normal tires, because those radials arent goign to help you hook on that size rim anyway and 315/30/18s actually are smaller height wise than your stock wheels.
I had nitto 555rs in 305/35/18 and i they actually helped a lot but thats a 26.5 inch tire.
Im getting my falken rt-615s 315-30-18's mounted this week, they should arrive tuesday.. ill show you pics.. i picked them up for 618$ from DTD, they have free shipping.
edit- also i wouldnt go with an 11" wide rim for a 19.. Tire price would be insane and fitment would be an issue.. might still be just for the 18s.

Definitely get the 18s. Not only with the 315s look sick from behind but IMO anything bigger than 18" looks bad on an fbody. If you don't plan on drag racing with these tires than just get whatever street radials you could afford.

i voted 315's....there's not a whole lot of difference in price between the two, and i personally think that a 19" rim is too big for an f-body
and if you're not going to be drag racing a lot, just get street tires....you will get a TON more life out of them, and that's important (at least to me), seeing as how in this size tire, the prices are pretty crazy
