Recently purchased a set of 19's with no tires. I would like to know what tire size are people running on there 5.5g. Not sure if i should have posted this here or in tire and suspension. if i posted it incorrectly mods please move. thanks

 

245/35/19 is the best size to keep your speedo accurate

 

B

 

you could run a 235/35 as well..

 

im using 225 40 19 in front and 245 40 19 in the rear...
you may have rubbing issues as i do,depending on your drop.
i am on tokico whites/vogtland springs.

 

^ Wouldn't it be better to put the 245s in the front? Or would there be rubbing issues at full steering lock?

 

245/40/19 is almost 1" bigger diameter than stock, and IMHO 225s on a 19 is probably stretched

 

245/45/19 all the way around on Rays M45 Wheels on 2001 Max with H&R drop.

 

^ holy crap that's 1.8" bigger than stock diameter!! your speedo is out by 5mph when doing 60!!!

 

Yep I've ran 3 sets of 19" wheels and always go with 245/35/19

 

maybe im confused??
the rays are staggered...being 8.5 in rear how can you go same sizes all the way around? will the same width 245 tire fit a 8 inch rims and 8.5 inch rim?
i have them, 225.40.19 in fron. 245.40.19 in rear

 

I have same size tires on all four corners... 245/45R17's on base 350z rims. Works fine. I'd like to go with 235's next time though, as even with the mudflaps on, there's a LOT of road spray that has promoted rust near the fenderwells.

 

i have them on my max and im on tokico illuminas and h-techs just run 225/40 in the front and 245/40 in the back u can run 245 all around but they will rub in the front especially in the front if you dropped.

 

im running 225/40/19 front and rear

 

19x8.5 +29, 245/35 all around here

 

the people that are running same tire size all around, either have all 4 sets at 8 inches or 8.5 right????...like traded with someone.
im still tripping. i thought a 8 inch rims tire wouldnt fit a 8.5 inch rim

 

you can run a 8 in a 8.5 it will give you that stretched tire look but it can be done depends if your gonna run 40's or 35's.

 

yup, 245/35/19

 

I have had both 19x8 and 19x8.5 running 245. Depending on the tire the stretch is so small it's barely noticeable. Plus with those Ray's may look the best to run the 245/35/19 front and rear. If you go to 235/35/19 on the 8.5 width wheel it's more of a stretch and more noticeable. Unless that is the look you're going for lol.

Though, good news is with a 235/35/19 on the rear you won't scrub as much if you're lowered.

Haven't had a problem with scrubbing in the front running a 245/35/19. I did however with 245/45/18 lol it was on a set of stock Maxima 6th gen wheels.

 

ya i got 245/40 in the rear on h-techs and they rub so my 245/35 would be better. but at first i was on 245 in the front and they rubbed too so i switched to 225/40 and have no problem at all.

 

good to know. i need new tires soon anyhow..so ill be looking for 35's

 

blew out the front on the freeway yesterday

time for tires now 4sureeee

 

I just purchased ur exact rim\tire setup (not yet installed): wondering if you had any issues with rub stock or dropped and if you would have done anything differently concerning said drop. i have yet to drop my 02SE.

 

265/30/19 here

 

So jealous of you guys who live where the road are good. In PA with a 45 mile commute I have to stay with 17s.

 

You can run a 245 35 19 on a 19x8 and 19x8.5 and you would not even notice the difference.

 

my roads are horrible too...let's just say that people hate riding behind me when it comes to any holes/railroads lol

 

heres a shot shot of 225.40.19 and 245.40 in rear 8.5in rim in rear ofcourse. rear not visible. i never realized i dont have many pics of my car




yes i need to cut my bumpstops in the front, illuminas and vogtland drop

 

^^DONT flame me... i just had to bump this for someone new with same questions now......seeing my old posts from 4 years ago made me chuckle a bit
i just picked up some g35 19" rays (personal attachemnt to wheel) again for my current maxima...and went down memory lane. at least this time i know the answer..245/35/19 all way around is the way to go

sigh: i miss my old maxima above...what it couldve possibly been today had i not sold it then

 

Do the fillings stay in your head? geez, talk about rubber bands- but I bet it looks bada$$
