i just bought tires but im confused!

i just bought TOYO T1R'S for my stock 19's. first i get to the shop and they only have the two fronts. im confused because i have the 19x8.0 fronts and 19x8.5 rears. the stock rears have really no tread on them. are these numbers right on the rear OEM tires say 245/40/19and the new TOYO's in front say 245/40/19/ is that right for the 8.0 and 8.5 sorry im so lost please help me AND WHAT ARE THE STOCK SPECS?

thanks

I think those tires are too tall...

I just put on new Toyo T1Rs on my stock 19s last month. I put on 245/35 on front and 275/35 on the rear. There's been a little controversy on this site going back and forth on this size as they're wider. But the tire shop had no problem and they look/ride great. These give a very close to correct speed too.

If you are asking about the OEM tire size for the 19" coupe wheels they are:

225/40/19 front and 245/40/19 rear.

A wheel width has a range of tires that can fit. A 245 tire will fit fine on a wheel 8 or 8.5 wide.
