If thats what you want heartworm then as mr lover said, 255/35.19 would be the tyre you're looking for... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Just looking to get a new set of rear tyres, what size should I be looking for? Depends partly on the wheel width. What width are your ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a good point, i remember when i had to use my 'spacesaver' and it felt totally different to drive! Are you sure it didnt feel a bit different than to drive?! It feels fantastic to drive, its much more precise than my last supra was, Ive done around 5000 miles on this set of tyres so thought I would have notived it, although I never push the car (its an n/a after all ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heartworm Posted May 8, 2008 Author Share Posted May 8, 2008 My cock up, looking at the tyre in daylight today, in its very flattened state, they are both 255, damn the darkness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cj748 Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 I have 275 on the rear, but will maybe bring that size down to achieve a lower sidewall profile, always looks good IMHO. (wheel size allowing of course) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorin Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 On a 19" the profile should be 30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
