Tyre Combo

245/35/19 Fronts and 265/30/19 Rears.

Anyone tried it?

I know it's usually 235 and 265 or 245 and 275.

Just curious to know if anyones tried a 245/265 combo and what was it like?

I've been wondering the same thing. Stock is 235/35/19 front and 255/30/19 rear. It seems common to upgrade 245 front + 275 rear. What size front is better with 265/30/19 rears?

I currently use 235 35 19 front and 265 30 19 rears.

But i want to go 245 35 19 front.

I want to retain the 265 30 19 rears.

Mom looks wired? For the sake of derailing this thread, do you say mum?

I have 35/65 but I'll be bumping up to 45/75 on next change for extended tire life (or tyre life). 45/65 sounds like fun too.

My car came on 235/255 OEM, so 245/265 is no prob. I don't believe there are any rules except for your taste when selecting from 225-255 fronts, and 255-275 rears (and I know some have gone beyond that). As long as they fit and your ride is fine then go for it. I'm just happy that my ALUMINIUM wheels are a nice ride, and I have a decent spare in the BOOT (sorry, couldn't resist...). My BONNET looks good, too.

Mine came CPO with new PSS 245/40/18 and 265/35/18
When I replace them I'll go 235/40/18 and 265/35/18
Better directional stability up front andmore traction for power delivery

Totally off topic but our system makes sense when you consider an inch is the width of a man's thumb, a foot the length of his well . . . foot, and a yard about the length of his stride.

What's 6 cm?

I get most of my sports supplements at Nutrition Depot, rather than Vitamin Shoppe.

Stupid vitamin shoppe. forgot about that. I'd do GNC or anywhere else before any "shoppe". I'd especially never get a 235/265 tire combo from "ye olde tyre shoppe"
