Need help with 19" tires ASAP!

My rear tires are about to go and I need to order tires ASAP. Is it ok to step up to 245-35-19 and 275-30-19 ?

What other combinations can I go for?

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks!

are you running on the stock 19's? if so then you can go with 245/35 front and 265/35 rear.

Yes stock 19s - What about 225/35WR19 and 245/35WR19 ? The Fuzion ZR1 tires are like $149 and $167 respectively

No 275s out back?

you can go 275's, it's just a little wide for an 8.5" wheel.

you'd want a 255/35 or 265/35 if you were going that route

225/35WR19 and 245/35WR19 are fine then? A little smaller sidewall but will it even matter?

I work for bridgestone/firestone and we make the fuzion's, they dont really belong on a G but if you need a budget tire then they are good tires for the price. We designed them to compete with the Kumho line.

if you want it to be as close to stock as possible i'd go with the 235/35 and the 255/35

Why don't they belong on a G? I don't see how tires can be made for a specific car.

not that... they were geared towards the sales of import cars like honda's and toyota's, as an alternative to kumho and falken. They arent made for a specific car, i just dont like them on nicer cars, the sidewall isnt the most attractive design.
