Tires size Advice

michaelyang601 · 02-05-2016, 01:12 AM

I'm putting a new set of TE37SL on my car in spring time. Still thinking what size of tires should I choose. My wheel spec is 19x8.5 et 35 and 19x9.5 et21, I'm thinking of 235/35/19 and 275/30/19. Any recommendation? I'm trying to avoid rubbing front and rear.

Thank you guys.

I would recommend 245/35/19 for fronts rather than the 235.

Or if you will keep the 235/35/19 I would say do 265 rears. Which may look a little more proportioned based on your rim width.

^^ agree

I also think with 235 front and 275 rear you would get more unwanted understeer. Better to run 245 or 255 up front if you run 275 rear.

Decide to go with 235/35/19 and 265/3019 at the back. I think this will be the most safer option for me.
