ok , sorry for another tire thread , but here we go , only mod car has is 3:09 rear, stock pirelli all seasons. Car is purely street driven , never in the rain . Car blows the tires off in any spirited acceleration, from a dig or roll . Second and prob most important factor is the pirellis pick up rocks between the tread in the front tires and chip the shit out of the paint . So i want to replace them . car is 3 years old and has 2300'kms . so it doesn't get driven much. was thinking of a 315/35/20 all 4 corners . Any recommendations? nits? g2 on front and 555r11 on rear ? conti-sports? michelins are impossible to get and very pricey. Wont ever be at the track, just like to give the odd street blast for a gear or two and not just go up in smoke or sideways . The conti's are available to me , the nitto's are hard to get , nobody stocks them up here and are all back ordered . Car will be parked soon for winter but don't wanna get to spring and not be able to get any .

thanks in advance

If you go wider in the front your rock chip problem will only get worse.

the perirells are the perfect tread gap to pick up the rocks on the roads here , like on my truck i had bfg all terrains , always flipping rocks, went to michelins or even the stock firestones don't throw 10% as much

Pure physics. Youre talking about going wider and stickier. Wider tires regardless of tread design and especially if youre looking for a stickier compound. Even a less aggressive tread pattern can’t overcome that. You will 1000% be throwing more rocks at your car.
