sent wrong size tire???
i ordered new tire and rims the other day and just got them over the weekend but they put 275/30/19 on the rear rims,(245/35/19 front) as far as i know this is the wrong size, it should be 275/35/19. the 35 profile is what i asked for but they say they misunderstood me and use 275/30/19 on all their setups and there are no problems.
does anyone have experiance running a 275/30/19 rear and does it work as they say or should i go through the hassel of trying to exchange them for the 275/35/19 cause they want me to pay for shipping both ways and to pay for the unmount, remount and to ballance the new tire
what should i do??????????????
thanks

If you don't swap out the rear for the correct size, you'll find yourself in this predicament.

thats were it gets sticky i know i asked for 275/35/tires because i turned down another company trying to sell me rims with the 275/30 set up and because i know it doesnt work. the sales rep admited he assumed i wanted 275/30 cause that is what they use all the time for 350z set up, but when he repeated the order back to me he says he said 275/30/19 tires, i didnt hear that.
my solution was to split the bill 50/50 with them, they pay for shipping both ways and i pay for the un mount and remount and ballance. as of right now the shop manager doesnt want to pay for anything, just swap the tires.
i would like them to cover all cost on their guarantee of wheel and tire package fitment since the package they gave me wil upset my vdc and abs. i allready emailed them proof of wrong tire size

im not putting anyone out their publicly yet, im giving them a day or two max to fix their wrong. ( they do advertise in the wheel and tire vendor classified here on my 350z ) just trying to see what other people think about the situation and how they would handle it. the other company that i did not order the rim and tire package from because they wanted to give me the same 275/30/19 rear set up was a place in ohio called tires delivered.

A verbal (telephone) order may result in a misunderstanding. Still, the seller should give you a break.

I don't see how they can say that it's the standard setup for the 350Z in 19" wheels when obviously it violates the #1 rule with respect to VDC - the rear tires must be taller than the fronts.
