Is the profile still 35R ? Do you know how much larger the new tires are in diameter than the original and were they less expensive ? It looks like they fill more of the wheel well.
They are 275/35ZR19 96Y same rating as the old ones. Not sure about diameter, but their not rubbing any were. The cost was about the same as the 255's £223 including the fitting.
