Love the new Purners but what tire choices are there?

I'm seriously thinking about the new split 5 spoke wheels but since it's only available in 19" how many tire choices are available? Yes, the initial purchase is less than a set of HRE 18" but in the long run will you spend more on replacement 19" tires than 18"?

That depends on how hard you drive your car and how many miles you drive. The "**** Factor" is great but I believe there is less than 3 options for tires. Form or function, it's up to the buyer.

If Pirelli still made their 25 series tire, I would jump on them. I think the 345-30-19 Michelin looks to big

I would buy them if they had good rubber for road racing.
Bummer.

Anyone know why John is only making these new rims in 19's? I'd buy a set if they were 18's!!

Machining setup costs. Someone threw out a 50K figure if I read correctly.
