Question about rubber too big
 
255/35 and /295/30/19s . Are they too large? Any ride quality issues? Would stock size be better 245/285 or not? Thanks

Lots of info about this in lots of threads.

I have 265/35/19's front and 305/30/19's rear. No ride quality issues or rubbing (stock suspension). The bigger rubber looks sick. IMO, if you are gonna change tires... go with the widest setup you can.

I have this exact setup. Zero issues and better than stock "ride" quality.

I am also running a 255/35 Front, 295/30 rear with Michelin Pilot Super Sports, and one of my biggest comments on the car is how 'fat' the rear looks with so much rubber back there. And it does look good. :tup:

Dropped on K&W v3's (1" all around) and no rubbing. Wheels are +22 offset all around with a 5mm spacer in the rear. Looking to go for a 10mm spacer when there's extra cash laying around. Also looking to go wider in the front. I'd like to fit a 275 up front, but I'll prolly be stuck with 265 just to prevent rubbing until I can get some front camber arms.

I will be running (when my Works get here) 19x9.5+20 - 265/35/19 up front and 19x10.5+0 - 305/30/19 in the rear dropped on swift springs with spl rear camber/toe kit.

Are you lowered or using spacers? Are you staying with the base 18" wheels? If not what size and offset will you be going with?

I have the 265/305 combo as well. You will be fine with 255/295
