Ever heard of this company?
I found these tires in an ad in a SEMA magazine, these Ultrac Sessanta tires are pretty cool!
The Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta is the newest ace in the Ultra High Performance (UHP) segment. The Sessanta is based on the strong points of the Ultrac series and has been optimised even further to give very good steering and handling characteristics. Giugiaro Design has given the Ultrac Sessanta an innovative design, with a line pattern that clearly shows that performance comes first. The name Sessanta refers to the sixty years of Vredestein's existence in Enschede. In tribute to Vredestein's unique collaborative partnership with Giugiaro Design, "sixty" will be written in Italian: sessanta.
They have 255 40 ZR 19 for $214.14
and 295 25 ZR 20 for $301.57
I would like your feedback!
This combination of front and rear tire sizes would not look good at all on an SSR, or any vehicle for that matter. The P255/40ZR19 front tires would have a theoretical sidewall height of bit more that 4", while the P295/25ZR19 rear tires would have a theoretical sidewall height of only just over 2-7/8". That's not a good looking setup at all, with the front sidewall heights being a good bit larger than the rear! Plus, with 25 series tires on the rear you'd be running on "rubberbands", and not a good situation for a relatively heavy vehicle. Just my $0.02.
My SSR: Black, '03, 1sb, #1256, License Plate was WOW FCTR

Ghostrider, your post got me to searching Performance Plus Tire website and I found some tires I haven't seen before
DISCLAIMER: I did NOT verify SPEED or LOAD or SIZES for any of the tires. The only thing I did was verify that they had a 19" and 20" in the same tire....

Look what else I found.....
colored tires for colored smoke while burning out or drifting!!!
My SSR: '05 Redline Red #20727.... Born on 05/05/05

and would also be concerned with load rating...I could see blow outs on the rears if you hit a pothole

This tread design is awfull, Try and put that tire on the front of any vehicle and your asking for Alignment problems. Shimmy and Steering would be Terrible.
Wow Thanks guys!
I know nothing about tires other than what I like the looks of the thread!
It's good to know I got my back covered by all you Fanatic's!!!
