need tire suggestions

I have some milled down 19" Alcoas and currently run sportscar-ish type tire 235/35s wondering if there is an alternative, tired of this heavy chevy wearin' through soft compound tires. get expensive. was actually thinking of going up to a 245/55 cause it'a available as a heavy truck tire. Any ideas?

I run 19's too. The last tires I had sucked bad they were falkens. They were really soft though. I had found some that weren't near as soft that I am going to replace them with but can't find where I wrote the info down. They were in a 245/45/19

Those are the ones I am going to buy. They have a 400utqg rating and 1874lbs max per tire. They are the highest weight rating I can find and a reasonable hardness. There are some that are in the 600 range but the price makes them not worth it in my opinion. I am still going to wear them out so why pay $200+ per tire. Those Pirelli's are like $158 at tire rack.

I have sold the Bridgestone H/L400 and the Goodyear Assurance in the 245/55 size before on our 19" packages. The price is over 200ea on those tires though.
