Research the web site. Lots of people either have the 245/19, 275/19 set up or 245 (255)/19, 285/19 set up. I don't think I've seen too many with your suggested 235/19, 275/19 format

What diameter are the wheels? It matters.

I have 19x9 fronts with a 245/35/19 tire. There is plenty of room. I used to run a 275/35 front as well.

Yo,i already running 235/35/19 front and 265/35/19 rear.I am planning if the 275/35/19 in rear can run the vdc safely.

VDC will be fine, but why do you think wider tires on the front are bad??? I'm confuzzled.

wide 19wheels+tyres on frond is always bad for road racing either track racing.

You're actually telling me that wide front tires will make you slower on a road course?

You'll be slower from the larger 19" wheel diameter versus the increased contact patch of "slowing" you down. I run 275s all around for road course and autox, both, as do many other members. There is a compromise for size vs weight, but I believe we're far away from that in this case. If you put a 395/30/20 on the front of your everyday Honda Civic, it would, in fact, be slower because it wouldn't be faster from the added width, but would be much slower because of the increase in rotational inertia of it.

No one runs this combo because the tire sizes are incorrect. Your on your own with this one. Good luck!!! Let us know what you find out. People are trying to offer advice I suggest you take it.

235/35???? That's really really wrong.
