NOW WITH PICS! New Michelin PSS 255 / 275 combo on 19's anyone try it?
Hey guys... just got some DPE 19 X 8.5 & 19 X 9.5 SP-5 wheels.

Was planning on going 255/30/19 front... 275/30/19 Rear.

Anyone fit a 255 on the front before?

Thanks,
Dave
PS... updated now with pics of 245/35/19 & 275/30/19 PSS!

It's been done before, but the tires will bulge out a bit off ur rims. It's better to install them on 19x9. I have 19x8.5 with 245/35 & they are square. Lol

I have 19X9.5 rear and 19X8.5 in the front and went with the Nitto NT555's.

245/35/19 front and 275/30/19 rear and no rubbing at all....

Yeah... I tried late last night... to mount up the 255's... they are WAY to wide from Michelin... other brands may be ok... but the 255/30/19 from michelin is AS WIDE (if not wider) than the 275/30/19 of theirs!!! It really should be called a 275/25/19!

So... I'm going to order 245/35/19's for the front!

Thanks guys!

Dave

I had 245/285 x19 Nittos no problem. I replaced them with new Michelin 245/285 PSS 2, the rears hit a bit on the inside of the rear wheel well. I would suggest 245/275.

No rolling of the fenders, everything tucks in within fender.

Thanks,
Dave

Nothing to roll, you will understand when you look at the fender.
