Stock Tire Size

Hey guys. I have an 05 coupe and its time for some new tires as the wires are starting to show on the inner side. I bought my car used last year and apparently, all four of my tires are the same size...they aren't staggered. My back two tires are fine, or have less wear apparently and I need to change my frot two. What are the stock front tire sizes..or the recommended sizes so I can get some new or used ones put on there for now?

If I'm not mistaken, it it 225/40/19 if you have the OEM rays.....if you go tire rack or discount tire direct you can verify those numbers when you enter in your year make and model....

Oh ok. Thanks for the response. I don't have the rays...so I'm guessing they are 18's.

If all your tires are about the same age, I'd replace all 4, not 2.

Look at the tires for a date code, in the format of week2digityear. For example 3011 means 30th week of 2011. Also, given the age of the car, have a complete alignment done before installing the new tires.

What size ARE they?

This will tell us the rim size, then we can pinpoint the exact stock size. Neal has it right, but it doesn't pinpoint it, since you may not know if you have a base or sport model.
