Default One last time please

Don't want to be a pain....but!

I've changed my mind and decided to forget about getting 18" and now going for 19 in gt-7. From what i figured out the optimal tire sizes (as close to stock as possible) would be 255/35-19 f and 275/35/-19 r. Does this sound right??? Will the 255' even fit??

Thanks

I actually ordered Volk gt-7 from www.pmpdesigns.com he told me to get 245/35/19 and 275/30/19 rear because of the tire height..

my sugestion is what I use:
245/45/19 f

you want that extra height for better wheel protection and smoother ride. Especially on the front. Also car doesn't neet to be lowered because taller tire makes it look a little lowered.

that front to back tire size difference would be totally off, and mess up VDC, your sposed to keep it within 1%, or something, but those sizes are WAYYYY off. 110 mm sidewall in front, on a 19" RIM??? and 97mm sidewall on back, meaning your front tires would be way taller than the rears. if you want more sidewall shoulda gotten 18s.

ah ok, much more reasonable, tho still a bit taller in front than rear, which is typicly the opposite of what youd want... but whatever works, the 45 was just plain crazy.
