I changed ot the Vredestein new performance tire, stock Xfire rims with 235/4018fronts, 275/30 19 rears. Looks and works great. Back tires always looked small to me, with the sidewalls coming straight up from the rims.

I have a set of 275/30-19's in the back, they look great, ride well and seem to hook just fine. The flip side, is the tire guys hate me at my local shop. They spent about two hours trying to mount them without scuffing up my rims or breaking the tpms.

Are those mounted on the OEM rims?

OK, I'll ask you-what is the offset, front and back for the OEM rims?

I've read 35/22 and 35/35 Front/Back.

Anyone?

If they are stock... 275s in the rear are fine... hmm... probably 35 profile as it will give you a slightly taller gear, increase your gas milage and keep you from spinning them as much.

Caution: It WILL make you seem like you are going slower than you actually are. So for a 65 mph speed limit... do 62.

If you have aftermarket rims... well... I like my tire choices...
(see the picture to the right in my signature) Front: 245/35R18s ... Rear: 295/30R19s
