So what is the temperature range difference (provide hi/low) between the Direzza Sport Z1 and the Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec, and their optimal operating temperature range if they are different.

yeah the temperature is most likely an A bc most performance tires have to be a grade A and there's nothing to say about hi/low bc with grade A its like a specific temperature u can reach and most of time you can't and the difference between the two tires are the speed ratin the z1 is unlimited speed rating and the star spec has a w speed rating. but hope thats helpfull

so for 18 you can run 215/40, 225/40, 235/40, and 245/40 on your 18 and i mostly recommend staying with 18 bc 19 will get pretty expensive on tires but you can run 225/35 and 215/35 and thats about i that i know of but hopefully you stay with the 18 but just pm if you have questions on tires you want.
