Has anyone tried to find a set of tire for the 1LE. There are not may choices. I think tire rack lists 2. I've even checked a few manufacturers sites. A lot make some for the front OR rear, but not both. Does anyone have any ideas on where to find more options?

285/30-20 there are 24 tires
305/30-20 21 tires

Pilot Super Sports are made for front and rear.
Not sure where you are looking?

Individually, yes there are that many options. There are not that many that match.

Match what?

[Boxmonkey]

Front and rear.
Tire rack does list several options but of those there are only 2 match front to rear.
If you look by size and choose the staggered fitment, only 2 options show up.
I have found those 2, plus the stock and maybe 1 or two others by searching manufacturers sites.

The 6th gen 1LE has a staggered tire set up. The front is 285 and the rear is 205. The 5th gen had a square set up.

Correct. I'm just looking for a few more options for a staggered set up for a 6th gen 1LE where the front tires are the same type and compound as the rear. It seems there are only a few because of the sizes.

The goodyear tires do not exist yet either but they are coming with the 1LE and ZL1, so id bet we see some tire choices open up once the car gets released. Also there is a possibility of plus sizing to a more common tire size but seeing that these are 20s.. hah who knows.

Fixed. 305 rear.

Problem is that 20" high tires are fairly new. It takes a while for companies to catch up to demand. Not much in the way for wide 19s either... it takes time.

I still remember when 17s were "tall" for a wheel. Now, they're VERY common, practically the normal size for a wheel dia.

I hope you're right. I'm really looking forward to the car. It would be nice to have a few more options. I've heard good things about the goodyears that will be on it, but sometimes aftermarket does better and or cheaper.

Same tire model that can be put on the front and rear of the car at the same time.

I can tell you that I will be ditching the OEM tires once Bridgestone has the RE71 or BFGoodrich has the Rival in a wide 19" or 20" dia.

I was hoping to see both of those, myself. Yokohama doesn't have a single tire that'll work with the stock 1LE wheels, yet. But I really like the RE71s I'm running on my Subaru.

No plans as far as I know for 20in in those options. Bridgestone has the 285 in 19in and are planning on releasing a 305 in 19 as well. Rival has nothing larger than 18in planned...
