19x8 and 19x10 tire size ?'s

I just ordered some jlines in those sizes and was recomended 235/35/19 for the front and 275/30/19 (only 275 size the tires I want have) in the rear. what are pros and cons of that setup?

after talking to some people i decided on going with 235/35/19 and 275/35/19. i think that's what you should go with.

For that setup on 19's you will need to go with the following setup so the darn VDC is happy.

Front 245 - 35 - 19

Rear 275 - 35 - 19

yo gotta go with this setup so the VDC is happy.

same here. Will the 235 series tire be thinner than the 245? I'm not to hip to all what the number mean (except for the diameter of the wheels)

I would do the 245, reason being it protects the wheels better if for "knock on wood" you hit a pot hole you will have more protection.

Im running a 245 and no problems. look at my pic i posted in the thread on the DPE wheels and you can see the front wheels.


you can do 235 but make sure the series (the middle number) is 35 for 19s. 30s will make the VDC go crazy

so the 245/35 and 235/35 have the same tire height, but the widths are different, correct?

19x8 is too small for Coupe but 19x10 is too big for Sedan, weird set up

Why is 19X8 too small for the front of a coupe? What's wrong with 19x10 for the coupe? hhhmmm, wtf are you talking about? There are MANY people with custom wheels on their coupes running those sizes, and you act supprised to see them listed in this thread?
