Jellybean Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 I heard these are a tight fit, if I run 275 35 R19 should I get the 285 35 R19? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny g Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Or 285/30 to keep your rolling radius a little closer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackso11 Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 I heard this about Falkens. Same question from me, 275 instead of 265? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitz Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 I run Falkens on my Car, just got the same fitment that was on from the previous tyres (Yokohama) no problems from what I'm aware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Or 285/30 to keep your rolling radius a little closer 285/30R19 would be closer to stock rolling radius. Check HERE if you input the stock tyre sizes and new tyre sizes it'll compare the two. Stock sizes are Front - 235/45R17 Rear - 255/40R17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Fitment issues, news to me, in what way? I have used Falken 452 a few times on stock rims in stock sizes and never had an issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 They are skinner than what is written on the tin. I have 265s on my 10 inch rim and they are way too stretched. Seen other 265s on 10j here and they fit perfect. I find falkens far too skinny, ill be plus 10 on any of their tyres from now on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellybean Posted January 19, 2011 Author Share Posted January 19, 2011 If I drop down to a 30 profile from 35 to get closer to the original rolling radius; will my ride height drop much, she is on the deck enough as it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jellybean Posted January 19, 2011 Author Share Posted January 19, 2011 If the rolling radius is the same then the ride height will be the same cool, I will do the calcs tonight and see what it should be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
