Default Help on tire.

I just purchase a new set of wheels for my car and hoping that I can get some help on some tire. My question is, can I run 285 35 19 in the rear and lower about 1.2 inch ( lower on Eibach Sport line spring) in the rear would I need to roll my fender..? the size of the rear are 19x10 offset 25. Also would i have any problem running 245/35/19 in the front and 285/35/19 in the rear. thanks

That tire size would work great in the rear. I'd say you would need to roll your fenders. It would be close under hard driving or turning. What are your front wheel size (width)? If it's 19x9, I'd go with a 255/35/19.

I had the same size wheel and tire in rear with a +18 with prokit drop. It was close when cornering, but didn't rub. But your dropped more than I was. It might be tit for tat on rolling your fenders. Let someone else shine in.

I've read something about that one time also. Something about the ratio from fron to back not being close enough together. I can tell I had the same setup and oversteer was there a little but not much. That was when I was pushing it very hard. I had my sway setup for more oversteer put in a deep turn in it would push a little. I don't think it's something to worry about. Many, many people run that same tire setup and would agree it would be OK.
