Tire size

I am looking to order the 19" MRR m716 and I want the same circumference as the stock tires. So I was wondering what tire size to order and will they fit. I am looking at for the front 265/40 or 275/40 and 305/35 for the rear. These are 19s and I want more sidewall then the stock tires. I do have MRC.


Wheels front 19"x10 +23 rear 19"x11 +38


Thanks----

Funny, I just did the same thing w/m755's. Saved a lot of weight. Using a tire calculator I came up with 305/35 in back and 275/40 up front as the closest to oe. Fills the wheelwell the way you want and rides better. Plus saving 7-8 lbs per corner unsprung is big. You can feel the difference. I am lowered though so not sure how the wheel gaps will look at normal ride height.

The tire sizes you mentioned are a perfect fit since the 1LE package goes up to 275 up front and 305 in the rear without sticking out. Also, the sidewalls are about the same as well.

I did the same but went with 325/30/19 and 305/30/19 Michelin PS4S on Apex SM10s.

Front may need spacers but prolly not much, rear will need harness moved but that should be it.

You can also get Michelin PSS in 305/35/19 and 295/35/19, these are closest to stock.

My buddy is running 285/35 and 305/35. Looks very close to stock, I like it a lot.

Are you wheel sizes the same? Do you have MRC? No fitment or rubbing issues?

Yes but I'm not positive the offsets are the same. I'll see what I can find out. No fitment issues and no rubbing yet. I haven't truly put it through the paces since the rim swap though so keep that in mind. Won't know for sure for a couple more weeks.

No MRC.

These are the set I got but they don't list specific offsets. Sorry.

It's not nearly as bad as it seems, plus I'm 6'4 so the way my seat is adjusted those windows were almost useless before hand. The louvers chop up what little view there is but don't really cause any issues in my case.
