Default Falken FK-451 vs FK-452

I just bought some FK-452 size: 245/35 19" tires to replace my FK-451 245/35 19"s. The 452's are about 1" wider than my current tires and now I don't know if it will fit my 19 x 7.5 rim. Does anyone know if the new tires will still fit my rims?

Are you sure it's wider? Where is it wider at? The tire should fit no problem. If its 1" wider on the inner rim of the tire, then its normal. Not all tires come out of the factory the same.

they just made it wider - clearly the 451's were on the narrow side...

those will fit the wheels just fine, they will just bulge out a little...

Thanks. I had them mounted today and they fit fine. The tread width is definitely wider (about 1") than the FK-451's
