They are soft sidewalls, so I run a stiffer sidewall on front.
Gmax is the best wet and longest lasting tire I could find for our cars.
275 is the widest that is reccomended for stock rear 9" wide rim

I use the Gmax 275/35r 19 on rear great wet traction, they are directional tires but I have them remount ed and balanced to flip to the other side.

Agreed whole heartedly on the Gmax.. seems to be a really good balance on price - performance - and mileage.

Re: Tyre size for rear wheels.
Quite a lot of us bods in the UK run the Falken FK453 275/35/19 on the rear, they seem to work quite well especially if the FK453's are used all round, these replaced the older FK452 that if still available are likely to be getting a bit long in the tooth now.
Re: Tyre size for rear wheels.
I had Toyo proxes on our track/fast road Mx5, as did a number of friends and we all loved them.
I put them on the Camaro too and they transformed the cars ride and handling ( rears did not last long on the camaro,but that was down to me having a liking for lots of smoke and burning rubber!)
No idea how they would go on a XF but see the do come in 275 and 285 35 19
Has anyone fitted them?
