285/35/19 = 9 tires

And stock size
245/40/19
275/35/19 = 19 tires

Not sure if I want the scraping going with the 255/35/19 fronts so I would prolly also stick with the 245/40/19 up front. For the rears it would then have to be the 285/35/19 if not the stock rear tire size of 275/35/19.

Where I live the roads are not the best, and I am hesitant to go 35 series front and 30 rear....... I think I need 40 front and 35 rear to maintain sidewall height for rim protection and ride comfort, YMMV.
