Hi there...

I am now looking at getting 19s...

The tyre shop wants me to get 245/35/19 fronts and 275/30/19 rears...

I asked them if I could have 275/35/19 rears as I want the tyres to be a bit taller... I need some height as I cant get up my driveway otherwise...

They have told me that there will be issues with traction control and rubbing.... Why would this be the case? I had 275/30/20 rears and 245/30/20 fronts and they didnt cause any traction control issues and also seem to have exactly the same diametre as my 275/30/20s... Anyone who knows anything please help as I would like to order!!!

do you have a tyre in mind? I didnt think there was too many 275/35/19's out there?

You only talking 8mm difference in rolling diameter between an 30 and a 35 there wormy which is 5/5th's of farkall.

I cant see why a 35 would cause traction issues tho?

They reckon if your front and rear diameter is different by 3% it will cause traction control problems...

Having said that... I had 275/30/20 on rear and 245/30/20 on front and it didn't complain...

So 275/35/19 and 245/35/19 should be VERY similar...

I need the height of a 35 profile otherwise my car can't get up the driveway... I am gonna brake something... (exhaust, side skirts... Who knows... My car is sitting out the front till I get bigger rims and Tyres! LOL)
