Default what is the stickiest 19\" rear tire ?

What 19" rears will stick the best. Don't care about tread life. Anyone know of 19" drag radials coming out ?

Doesn't the comp coup come with 19" slicks? Who makes those?

The short answer is there are no good options. It's pretty much Pilots or Pirelli's, and neither is anywhere near as sticky as Kumho V700's or a drag radial like the BFG. The comp coupe uses 18" rear tires, unlike the SRT-10.

Found this news item on the Kumho site regarding the re-release of the V710. It says the v710 is currently available in 7 sizes, but will be available in 17 sizes soon. Could 345-19-25/30 be one of the upcoming sizes? Hopefully. Heck I live in the desert, I'd run slicks for sure if they cam in 19".
