275/35-19 Nitto NT 555's... Too big?
 
Hey there.

I have the OEM 19's, and I just had a pair of the above tires installed on the rears.

I did not love the drive home at all.

The car felt very unstable, the ride in general was rough, and I felt like I was just not getting traction when taking off...

Did I go too large??

Thanks,

Clint

those sizes are within oem specs. (x< 3%) i'd make sure the lug nuts are properly torqued and air pressure is correct all around. NT555's aren't too great for traction in wet weather also but drivable.

You are running 275 wide tires on a 8.5 inch wheel. IMO, that's pushing the limit- something I wouldn't feel comfortable doing myself.

There are a few people who are running 275 on the OEM 19's. I don't know how its going for them though.

^+1, 275 is too wide on a 8.5. But I think you should be fine.

You should have picked up NT05s...

yeah, i run 275's on 19x10 and they look meaty. can't imagine them on my 8.5 fronts, i run 245's.

Deezflip Feb 2, 2010 09:37 AM

what size are you running up in the front?

c35 Feb 2, 2010 10:36 AM

I have 245/35R19's in the front.
