For most set ups. Clearance at the top of shock, coil over becomes an issue with something close to mine.

What's the rear look like?

gomer_110 · 02-16-2019, 11:23 PM

Not nearly as silly since the rear is the same wheel and tire. There will most certainly be some "clearancing" to make this work with the suspension under load.

Hey all, I've been doing lots of reading in this sub but want to make sure I'm tracking with my ideas.

With a base 2010, I'm wanting to run Work Kiwami 19x9.5 +25 fronts 19x10.5 +12 rears, then 265/35/19 front tires 305/30/19 rears. Anything jump out?

I just went with 285/30/19 front and 305/30/19 rear. I'd rather have 265 or 275 up front I think. But itll fit.

What's the difference in tire height? If it's more than 3%. You'll have some lights going on.

All wheel drive is a different story.

I just got a set of Hankook, 305-30 & 265—35.
After listening to the tire guy swear for 45 minutes I heard him torque the wheels and tipped him $60.
He seemed pretty happy and he did a great job

305/35/19 proper meats spring prep!

Cause rears should always be meatier than fronts

Dahawkster · 06-01-2019, 02:20 PM

Is anybody running 305/35/19 on stock sport wheels? Wondering if you have any clearance issues.

You may want to consider 305/30/19.
