Will likely rub on a sedan unless you are lowered and/or fenders are rolled flat. 255/35 are fine, see my sig.

Im running 225/35 and 245/40 in the back, until my new tires for the rear come in and I cant wait to drop to a 35 series in the back.. the 35 series looks 100% better!!

So what would be the best set up for running 35s all around? I'm planning on doing this since it'd look a lot better.

I from what I understand, the 245/35 front and 255/35 rear will give the best ride/performance on the OEM 19's. They look better than the oem sizes of 225/40 & 245/40 I plan on going to 245/35 & 255/35 once I wear out the OEM sizes.

Def 245/35 front.

I ran 245/35f, 245/40 rear and was less prone to understeer in the canyons. Also, 245/35 front is about the same diameter as stock in front.

See this is what I'm talking about lol. Some people say one size, some say another. So 245/255 is the best? I don't track the car. Just my DD for school and work. Trying to figure out the best setup.

If you want better handling characteristics then the wider the better. If not then a 225/245 will work. Depends on what you want out of the car.

Hey dude, I also just bought 245/35 & 255/35 for my rays(vent us v12). How do you like them vs stock? The size difference I mean...more traction?
