Default 350z VDC question tire headache?!

HELP.... i get so confused when it comes to the VDC tires sizes. Heres the deal. I am currently running the stock 18" with stock tire sizes. I have a chance to get the G35 Rays 19" for a REALLY good deal locally. but i wont have enought cash to get the wheels and buy new tires. the rays have decent tires but i dont know if they will through my VDC off can someone please help?

the 19"rays front have 223/50/19
the 19"rays rears have 255/50/19

is there to much of a difference in the tires or will it work?

any help would be great.

thanks,
David

A 50 series for these tire widths on a 19" wheel will not work on a 350Z. The tires are too tall.

For the tire widths you mention, you need a 35 or 40 series with a 19" wheel.

G35 rays should have 225/40 front and 245/40 rears on them. That is also the proper size tire for your car.
