Tire Questions

Hello Guys,

I'm thinking about buying these set of tires.
These are the specs.
Front: 225/35/19
Back: 255/30/19

I was wondering will these be fine as a setup?
Will it feel different from OEM setup? which are
Front: 225/45/19
Back: 245/40/19

any input would be great!

Thanks guys.

Those are much shorter than OEM, over 7% in fact, I wouldn't recommend it. Try to stay under 3%, and if you have AWD you need your front to rear diameter difference to be under 1%.

Also those short sidewalls will make for a very firm/harsh ride and you won't like it when you get to rough roads for sure.

Use this calculator when trying new setups
