The ideal diameter in front is 245/35/19...but keep the 40s on there untill you need new ones. Shouldn't do any harm, just give you more rubber up there for better ride/protection. It MAY interfere with the VDC, but how much I dont know.

Just like said before, a 245/40 on a 19" is taller than stock. I would actually go a little lower than stock to make up for that extra weight. Thats why I went with the combo I did on my 18's
I had the stock 17's which are lower already than the stock 18's.
I went with a 235/40/18 and a 275/35/18 and if I were to go to 19's, I would do it like the greddy car. a 235/35/19 and a 285/30/19... If you want to be more conservative, than go with the 245/35/19 and 275/35/19 like everyone else...

It was a connection through a friend, but it was the last set. I paid $2200 shipped. They're on backorder nationally.

Default 245/40's in the front

How is your car riding with the 245/40 19 setup in front? I was thinking of doing the same setup but I was worried about rubbing. I don't really care if my VDC or speedo is off. I don't use either one of them. I would mind if it throws the ABS way off though. Are you going to lower the car at all? Please post pics...
