I'm going to put a set of OEM 19s on my wifes X. Would there be any issues with just running a 245/40 tire all the way around? I know they are staggered a bit but that size tire will fit on both wheels with out a problem. Am I overlooking something? Thanks

 

You can probably get away with that, although I wouldn't rotate them. Putting a wider wheel in the front compared to the rear could lead to unusual handling characteristics. Better off finding another set of 19x8's to run in the rear, many owners would be willing to swap you their 19x8's for your 19x8.5's

 

I hadn't even thought of that. Thanks

 

I've been running 245/40s all around on OEM 19s for more than a year now, no problems here. I am lowered on Eibach Pro Kits and rub a little on the fronts on very steep inclines (only one driveway that I've driven into).

 

They look very beautiful Marcus....

i wish i had them....

 

^Thanks Mark, you should pick up a set in the Marketplace

 

245/40/19 would work!
