    race rubber on 19's? I don't even know of any race rubber that actually comes in the size you mentioned. many of readily avaliable race rubber maxes out at 18" The Michelin Pilot Cup's come in 19's. But not the size you want. The 235-35-19 pilot cup is $326/ each on TR.

    Not knowing what kind of racing you are doing it is tough to say what kind of rubber to look at. Is this for auto-x or for HDPE track days? I would also suggest looking at a smaller wheel 18's or 17's for track rubber.

    good luck.

    If your are a beginner and its your first track day, street tires are all you need. You probably wont even need "track/sport" tires even since you will be learning the line the whole day and a couple other track days after that. But the best i would recommend using is the Falken Azenis RT615, Dulop Direzza Z1, Bridgstone RE01-R, Toyo R1R. Goodluck and stay safe.

    Yep, I'd start will a good street tire at first, and then graduate to the Cups (245/35R19 @ $ 365 each).
