    i had general exclaim UHPs on my 19s when i had em, pm burgundy2k1 and ask him... they are excellent tires and are pretty quiet... i'm not sure what sizes they come in, but that's what came with the wheels when i bought em...

    the total diameter for stock 9g rolling stock is 26.2" for DE and ES; 26.3" for GTS and RA. that means these sizes will fit correctly (within 2%)...

    225/40r19 235/40r19, 245/40r19, 245/35r19, 255/35r19, 265/35r19

    i don't even know if they make tires in all these sizes but you can search for them.

    on a 7.5" wide wheel i'd go w/ 225 to 245 (at the most).

    245/35r19.. Kumho ECSTA MX $179.00 (each) @ http://www.tirerack.com

    it would b just at the limit, but it would fit... just was posting that tire as an example since 225/40r19 seems to b a rare/expensive size. i didn't bother doing in depth searches tho, maybe it is available in an off brand for cheap.

    actually, the 9G has wider wells than the 8g (the stock tire is wider) so you should be looking at 8.0-9.5" wide rims (10" wide might even fit) (since the 8g optimum is 7.5 +45mm)... what's the stock offset of the 9g? that would give me a better idea of what would fit on the car at least in theory.
