Patrat New Member 5 Member For: 8y 3m 9d Posted 26/08/16 07:29 AM Author Share Posted 26/08/16 07:29 AM I got told this morning when I went to get them balanced & fitted that 245/35 19s is the largest you can go on the front. The 40's won't fit. So really have no idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stock tyre isn't closer than 10mm to the upper control arm, is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get a rule or tape measure under the guards and measure it yourself. Not hard to do if the wheels at full lock. If your unsure of sizes check the will they fit website.

I had 245/35/19 on my old F6 and it had plenty of room in all directions... The UCA is the closest thing I can remember and I remember it being more than 10mm away from the tyre.

Bob Jane has had them running on a local GS ute for a few years as well. Other brands may have slightly bulgier side walls or a different shape that may not leave any room but the Falkens I can Confirm! Speedo is thrown out a bit, 100km/h on the dash is 103km/h on the GPS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slam it New Member 1 Member For: 4y 9m 6d Posted 25/03/21 05:52 AM Share Posted 25/03/21 05:52 AM Bupalooga was this on the front? Tried to put 245 45s on the front of mine but the wall was hitting uca's so theyre on the back now and was wondering if 245 40s would go on the front and thus I stumbled upon this post.
