Best tires

There are other tires sizes you can go with, but if you have a staggered set, go with 295/30-22 & 335/25-22. If not staggered go with 285/35-22 all around. Hope this helps or points you in the right direction.

Like last post said those tire options. And as far as manufacturers go. Well Pirelli is almost exclusively your only option.

Disappointing unless you live in a location where weather is nice 365 then these will suffice. Not great in performance but not the worst either.

Hi, quick question. Why not go with 295/30-22 if not staggered? Not following why you recommend the narrower 285 width on a non staggered set up.

I have 22" Yokohama advans that are an option but the fronts are 265mm and rear are 315mm I would have to look to see the aspect ratio but they are close to stock overall dimensions.

In square 285/35 I know Nitto makes a couple options, if I did it again I think I would go with Pirelli just because of the sizes...the Advans are a way better tire but the sizes are not the best 10" is about as wide of wheel as you could go in the front so if you stuck with a 22x10/22x11 they are a superior tire.

Now what if you wanted to go with a taller side wall. I know it would be slightly bigger diameter then stock. Just thinking it may be more comfortable ride. Any suggestions on that?
