Is that okay to have different speed rating tires on the front and rear wheel?

Ryan998 · 10-04-2016, 02:20 PM

I decide to put Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8 studded on my sport package wheels for winter but the 285/35 R19 is 107H and 245/40 R19 is 98T.

Is that fine to keep them in different speed rating?

Just do wheelies at top speed, problem solved!

285 width snow tire?!@# You should go as narrow as possible. I just run a square 225/50/18 setup on my g37s in the winter. Some cheapy wheels from discount tire clear the big brakes in the front.

As long as you stay within the speed rating for the lowest rated set (118 mph/190 kmh in your case) you will be OK. As long as you stay on the street, you are good to go.

As others have mentioned, narrower tires would be more suitable for driving in snow.
