UNABASHED Posted January 21, 2011 Posted January 21, 2011 Ok, with 19" wheels running 275 rear and 245 front should the profiles match? Seen a few selling with 245/35/19 & 273/30/19 - is this correct?? Quote

UNABASHED Posted January 21, 2011 Author Posted January 21, 2011 But what about 35 front and 30 rear? Quote

rtbiscuit Posted January 21, 2011 Posted January 21, 2011 use a good calculator to check http://www.willtheyfit.com/ put the stock sizes in then the new ones and fiddle with the profiles and widths etc to find the closest match. Quote

I've been doing some research on this, and seems that most of these deals involve Nankang tyres who don't make a 275/35/19 tyre, so they stick on the closest match. I've been quoted £500 extra for Falken's which come closest to matching the cars correct rolling radius which are 245/35/19 Front and 275/35/19 Rear. Gives you some kind of idea of the cost of Nankang tyres Pete Quote

Yes, both them and Wheels U.K, still looking at other possibilities but the practice of putting on cheapo tyres to make the deal look attractive seems widespread. Pete Quote
BladesGrant Posted January 21, 2011 Posted January 21, 2011 They are always expensive when you want your own tyre brands and sizes. better off just getting alloys without tyres and then ordering tyres from somewhere like Camskill. Quote
TADDY Posted January 21, 2011 Posted January 21, 2011 ive run 35 profile front with 30 profile rear for a year with no issues at all and so did muddy Quote
UNABASHED Posted January 21, 2011 Author Posted January 21, 2011 ive run 35 profile front with 30 profile rear for a year with no issues at all and so did muddy So 245/35 & 275/30 is fine? Quote
ATTAK Z Posted January 21, 2011 Posted January 21, 2011 simples .... keep the rolling radius as close as possible to stock, and certainly within 2.5%, and you will have no problems Quote
TADDY Posted January 21, 2011 Posted January 21, 2011 ive run 35 profile front with 30 profile rear for a year with no issues at all and so did muddy So 245/35 & 275/30 is fine? only if your buying my wheels yes mate imo they will be fine just make sure there a good brand such as Falken fk452 Quote
UNABASHED Posted January 21, 2011 Author Posted January 21, 2011 are there any advantages to having 35 on front and 30 on back or would it be more sensible to go with 35 front and back? Quote

UNABASHED Posted January 22, 2011 Author Posted January 22, 2011 so are there any advantages to having 35 on front and 30 on back or would it be more sensible to go with 35 front and back or 30 front and back?? Need to make a decision today and so doing thes last sums to make decision!! Quote
TADDY Posted January 22, 2011 Posted January 22, 2011 the only advantage of having 35 front and 30 rear is that the tyres sidewall will look the same rather than the rears looking more chunky. Quote
