Default 295 30 19

Hi,

I have 275/30/19s on the rear with lots of clearance. Has anyone fit 295/30/19s on the rear of their car? Thanks.

Just changed my tires last week. (need to post pictures).

I have 295/30R19s (Yokohama Advans). I need a 5 or 10mm spacer to keep it from rubbing the upper-inner-forward area of the wheel well at full suspension travel. Otherwise it's fine.

I was also able to put 245/35R18s (same brand and make) on the fronts and could probably go to 255s, but it would rub for sure. Takes full suspension travel now to get small rubbing.

Hope that helps... Cheers!

Thanks, that helps a lot.

I run 245/30/18 Kuhmos on the front with no problem. I think that I would have to trim the upper suspension bolt to fit 255s.

What offset and width rear rims do you run, I have 35 offset rears with 10mm spacers.

Thanks again for the help.

Absolutely anxious to see those photos. What are your impressions - away from the track?

BLACKSRT-6,

Right now, no spacers with 35mm offset and a 9.5" wide rim. Click the link in my signature for exact specs in the rim and tire thread.

With a 10mm or 12mm spacer you MAY be able to squeeze 305s on there...

eganders,

Wish I had the camera today as I'm going to get it washed and detailed. I'll be heading to Las Vegas. I'll take a few pictures on the way and post them tomorrow when I get into the hotel.

The road impressions are nice. I don't notice any 'extra' road noise from them. Seems to grip a bit better than the Pilot Sport All Seasons I had before.

I'll let the track determine the final results.
