wooow sidewalls are way too tall, get rid of those. Go with 245/35/19, dont think anyone on here has anything close to a sidewall as tall as that on 19" rims

Tire is 74.4 mm taller than OEM tire. This will not work.

If you could get them for a steal, sell the tires. It's also quite likely that the 55 sidewall is a typo, as most truck tires that have a 55 (or higher) sidewall are wider than 245.

Have you even SEEN these Volk wheels with tires?

Gotta be a typo... 5x114.3 isn't a common SUV/truck bolt pattern where a 55 series tire would be used.

Oh, and LOL if it was a 55 series 19" tire and OP even thinking about putting it on a Z.

It's possible they came from an M45 cause I know the rear tire is a 245/45/19.

I have a feeling this was for a FWD car or something.

OP, please let us know what the offsets are so that you don't make a mistake.

You will still need to buy new tires for both front and reat.
