Default Tire Size Question

First let me appologize for not being able to understand the VDC sticky too well.

Currently running T1R 255/35/19 and 275/35/19.

I wan't to switch to KDW 2's and looking at running 265/30/19 and 285/35/19.

Anyone see any issues with this? Personally VDC is disabled 24/7 anyways but just thought I'd check.

The difference in overall height is 40.5mm. I don't like it.

Step up to a 275/30 front and you should be fine, or stick to the 255/35 front.

I don't think I'll fit a 275 on 9.5/+17 Volk GT-S. I have the fender rolled but still.

Anyone care to comment? Biggest I've seen people running was 265.

Assuming you have the correct width of wheel...

8.5-9.5 front and 9.5-10 rear

Go with either:

OR

255/35/19 front 285/35/19 rear

Thanks guys. The sizing just doesn't work with the KDW NT's that I wan't. This is the line up.

255/35ZR19
265/30ZR19
275/35ZR19
285/35ZR19
295/35ZR19

So weird that the only tire they made 30 profile was the 265.
