Bridgestone RE-11 265/35/19 front
Nitto NT05 275/35/19 rear

Would like to go 285 in the rear but it would make the diameter front to rear 0.6" difference. I don't think I want to do that.
Remember....if you change the diameter, it will effect your speedometer........I did this on my 240Z and got stopped by a State Trooper that I knew was following me......and my "actual speed" was faster than what the speedometer was showing.....nice guy tho......he did not give me a ticket......just a thought....

Yup, I am taking that into account with my tire size choice.
