does a 275/30 profile look smaller than a 245/35?
Sorry for all the posts...I'll delete them if anybody wants me too...I just dont want to screw up a $3000+ purchase.
I did the calculations and the diameter of the 275 is 1/10" smaller than the 245. I know that is damn small and only 1/20" inch in sidewall BUT...i have seen a pic or two where the 275 looked smaller than the front. I DO NOT WANT THAT....and yes I am being **** about this.
Has anyone else noticed this or am I alone?
Thanx.
Here is a thread where I think I see this...no offense to the owner!! You have a nice ride.

HA, you are being a bit **** but yes you are correct that they do "look" smaller. The reason for this is that the rear of the GS just looks lower because the design of the car doesn't require a turning radius compared to the front where I"m assuming youre 245s will sit compared to the 275's therefore it just aesthetically looks smaller.
Sidewall wise, the size is neglible
