Question about tires

I've got 275/30/19 and 245/35/19 tires. Would they be okay to put on 19's for a coupe G ?? Would there be any negative effects if i were to use these tires b/c I've noticed most cars are running 275/40 for the rear. Thanks in advance for the help.

Thanks! I'm thinkin on getting the volk gtm's 19x9.5 and 19x10.5. I origanally bought these tires for the racingharts on my 350z, but 2 days after i got them in someone rearended me and insurance totaled my car. Good thing i didn't get a chance to install them.

The Tires he has are going to kill the stagger. The front and rear outer diameter will be the same. The back should be from .5" to 1" larger in OD than the front. Hence the normally recommended 35 series front and rear (245 and 275). VDC is not going to like it, and the tire/fender GAP in the rear wont look good. This would have been the same with the "Z".

I was told the same thing by Discount Tire when I upgraded to 20" wheels & tires on my '04 coupe. The info popped up on their computer screen as we searched for plus size tires for the G35 coupe. I then asked my Infiniti dealer about it and they said that Discount Tire was correct.
