Default 2011 ISF tire setup

Hello all hope all is good im sure this has been mentioned before but i was curious for the 2011 rims would 235/40/19 , 265/35/19 . Im asking this because a good friend of mine gave me a set for free. If it was up to me i would do 245/35/19 275/30/19 but if this setup works im cool with it. Thanks

I dont see any problem with it. Your speedo might be off a little. Thats about it. Im sure somebody else can chime in.

Yeah your speedo would be off becuase those sizes are a larger diameter than stock (around 26in)...not sure if you will rub (on stock suspension?) but maybe on the back as there is plenty of room in the front...to your point on the stock wheels most people go with (other than stock sizes) 245/35/19 & 275/30/19...BUT some have done 235/35/19 and 265/30/19 which throws your speedo off the other way as these are smaller than stock diameter (25.xx) but these seem to work well when dropping the car etc...hope this helps!

its barley bigger. Should be fin. Tires will look a little chunky ( relatively) but no big deal.

Agreed! Barely taller than stock ones. I have the same size tires mentioned in PSS on stock 2013 wheels. The difference in speed reading is negligible.

I'm running 245/40/19 and 275/35/19 on stock suspension. I don't have any issues or rubbing. If I lower the rear I'm sure there will be rubbing on dips

These two words don't go together. Pirelli is P-Zero, and RE-11 is a Bridgestone.
