Question Vote: Most Popular Aftermarket Tire Size Combo on 19" OEM Rims

After doing some searching on this topic, it seems that there are basically two combos that are most mentioned:

A) 255/40/19 R + 235/45/19 F

B) 275/35/19 R + 245/40/19 F

I like option B but have heard some people say the sidewall height difference front to rear looks bad. If people could vote and add any comments it would be great. Thanks

I have came across different websites, they all say 245/40/19 + 275/35/19. The speed indicator is only off by less than 1% slower.

LOL, gotta love that. Anybody got a pic, sideview? I guess my concern is that the fronts mike look taller than the rears, which would be very uncool.

B.

And if your not dropped people are going to be looking at your fender gap, not your sidewalls.

Will A or B looked better with stock OEM wheels and stock suspension?

That would be great, that is exactly the tires I am thinking of getting. What are you paying if you don't mind me asking?

If I were to change the tires on my OEM 19's I'd go with "B" for sure.
