Tire fitment question

Just a quick one for those who are versed in plus-sized fitments. Will there be any problems or issues running (2) 245/45-19 tires in the rear and (2) 245/35-19 tires in the front? The 245/45 ones have 75% tread left while the 245/35 ones have 25% tread left.

what was the offsets on your new wheels?

i dont suggest running that 245/45/19. its going to be an inch taller than 245/40/19 that you saw on my car and almost 1.5" taller than the stock 17s.

245/40/19 = 26.7" tall
245/45/19 = 27.7" tall
215/55/17 = 26.3" tall

The offset of my wheels is +38. After going through the tire fitment thread Nathan suggested above, I'm thinking of going with 245/35-19 all around to avoid rolling/shaving fenders. The wheels are the HP Evo's Racing in hyperblack finish, 19x8.5 non-staggered. Thanks guys.

personally, id go with the 245/40/19. i think it fills the gap better.

look closely my car has 245/35/19 in the front and has 245/40/19 in the rear.



then again, im dropped on 350z springs, and the back sits a bit lower. if i kept the 19s on i would have bought 245/40/19 to replace the 245/35 fronts. it fills the wheelwells better and has a little more cushion for the bumps.
