without sacrificing too much performance what do you think? I dont want to get dedicated tires as
it's too much of a hassle...

That is the problem with 19s. Poor selection in that size, and prices are extremely high. Stick with 18s for better pricing and choice.

Sorry for a late reply but I like the Goodyear F1 Asymmetrics. They are available in the 19 staggered sizes and have worked very well for me. Although they may only save $20-$30 per tire over the PS2s.
