no you got the profile wrong for an SRT heres what im doing on my car 245/40/20 up front and 275/35/20 in the rear this setup will drop your car half an inch and make it look sexy as far as tires go im going to be running the yokohama S drives check them out on tire rack

goodluck!

Thanks for the info..I heard that the 35 series on the rear leaves alot of space in between the tire and wheel well.I will have to check out the yokohamas..Thanx.How does yours set in the rear..??

depending on what you want you may wish to consider the Toyo Proxes 4.

It is readily available, very inexpensive, and has summer tire type "stick" with all season capability.

Note that is unidirectional and rated to 168 mph.

only 168 mph what a joke,, looks like i wont get those

yeah, I know.

168 is so slow for me.

Toyo Proxes4 275/40 Rears 245/45 Fronts....seems like they are made for our cars! Great price-value also makes a big difference.

I run the Nitto INVOs and am about to get another set as I have just turned 30k miles on those tires. Not bad since I only got 12k out of the F-1s.

This may be a dumb question but does anyone have a pic of their Toyo Proxes 4's mounted? I've never had directional tires and I'm assuming the side marked left is facing out on the driver side but I'd like to see the tread pattern mounted on the car to make sure.

Thanks!

Yokohama Prada Spec-X for me, Soon to put 245/45's on the front, and I have 275/40's on the rear. On Tirerack, a lot of people are reviewing back with using these tires on the LX's. I'm happy with the rear two so far.. and at $140ish give or take per tire.. not a bad deal.
