Those who are running 245/35 & 275/30
For those of you who are running 245/35/19 and 275/30/19, Does your traction control go nuts?? I see alot of people run this.... Would it be safer to run 235/35/19 in front. According to the tire calculatorthey woould have exact tire sidewall height.
275/30/19 3.2" sidewall
235/35/19 3.2" sidewall
245/35/19 3.4" sidewall
275/30/19 3.2" sidewall
235/35/19 3.2" sidewall
245/35/19 3.4" sidewall

I would definitely go with a wider front tire than narrower to reduce the understeer. I would go at most 30mm difference between front and rear tire width, although I prefer a smaller discrepency. The car seems to behave more neutral when the tires are more similar in width front and rear I have noticed.

Well, if I was buying the tires right now, I would do that for sure. The problem is that I am buying a set of rims with the 235/275 tire set-up already on and want to make sure they will be drivable and I dont have to replace them right away.
So I will have some understeer issues with this set-up, it sounds like.
