Tire size help
Hoping anyone could help. I was looking for tires in the common size mentioned below:
Front: 235/40/19 Rear: 265/35/19 However, I found a good deal on tires but the fronts are 235/35/19. I don't know much about tires, so I wanted to know will this make a big difference in the look? Will it look bad or just not work? Should I keep looking or will this be ok? What do you guys think? Maybe I should go down like 225 and 255? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated! |

Did you change your wheels? So what are the spec? Is the car xdrive or rwd?
With 235/35/19, it will have less diameter creating more fender gap. Not to mention less sidewall to protect your wheels As you mention you can go use the OEM size 225 and 255 tires only if you don't mind the slight stretch. The stretch will depend on how wide your new wheel. |

Front: 19" 8.5 et:32 Rear: 19" 9.5 et:40 I am also not sure what you mean by stretch. I am not sure if to just go down to 225/40 255/35, or get the 235/35 with 265/35 or 265/30. I can provide more info if you need. What do you think or recommend? Its stock suspension as well. Thanks for your help. |

forget about the deal.
for your planned wheels just get 235/40/19 front, 265/35/19 rear. this is the best size combo for your wheels at stock ride height. |

The diameter is smaller almost more than half an inch... you get bigger fender gap

On the side note.... smaller diameter wheel/tire your speedo will read incorrectly. |
