Bellato Donating Members 2,713 Member For: 14y 1m 6d Posted 24/08/13 07:44 AM Share Posted 24/08/13 07:44 AM Yea should fit no worries. Just depends on brand of tyre. Also I would probably go 285/35 as you can in 19, just make sure you run a 245/40 up front to match rolling diameter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naddis01 Member 49 Member For: 17y 7m 30d Gender: Male Posted 24/08/13 10:53 PM Share Posted 24/08/13 10:53 PM I am trying to match the diameter of my fronts (245/35/19) more closely. I am currently running 275/35/19 Nitto's on the rear. What is it more likely to hit? Inner or outer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellato Donating Members 2,713 Member For: 14y 1m 6d Posted 24/08/13 11:05 PM Share Posted 24/08/13 11:05 PM You'll get more grip out of a 275/35 than a 285/30. The sidewall has more of a role than that extra 10mm of rubber on the roadI'd say you'll be getting pretty close to the control blade on the inside with the 285 aswell. But if anything it'll only be the tyre rubbing on corners etc so wouldn't be too worried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naddis01 Member 49 Member For: 17y 7m 30d Gender: Male Posted 25/08/13 09:18 AM Share Posted 25/08/13 09:18 AM (edited) Thanks for the replies. I will have to check how much room I have. I am not overly fussed on minor differences in grip as it is my wife's daily so it has plenty of grip 99% of the time. I am more trying to match tyre diameters as it has thrown a DSC fault which I put down to the tyre sizes.

XtRmn8 570Nm @1800rpm Donating Members 2,441 Member For: 21y 2m 3d Gender: Male Location: Perth, WA Posted 28/08/13 01:20 AM Share Posted 28/08/13 01:20 AM Does anyone know how heavy factory 19" XR Ford wheels are?Just trying to gauge what would be considered a heavy wheel and if the wheels I am looking at are a lot heavier then factory wheels.The wheels I am looking at are as following:- 19x8.5 with a +15 offset are 12.7kg before drilling and machining.- 19x9.5 with a +15 offset are 13.5kg before drilling and machining.Drilling and machining would remove maybe 0.2-0.3kg at most so nothing considerable.Cheers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
