Need some help figuring out whether this set I found for about half the price of new ones would fit my GT PP. The set I found are:

p245/40r19 and p275/35r19
-VS-
Stock are p255/40r19 and p275/40r19

Seems like thinner front and less sidewall on the back. I found these very cheap only for a couple hundred bucks. I need help from someone that could tell me whether these would fit on factory PP wheels and NOT be an issue driving this winter. If it'd be an issue then I'd just get new blizzaks with the same tire size as factory PP wheels. Thanks anyone who is able to help out!

They'll fit on the wheels, but you'll have reduced sidewall height and thus ground clearance all around (not ideal for winters).

You're really better off getting some narrower 19s (like AMR 8.5" width), which opens up which tire sizes are available. You'll probably come out close on cost too (new wheels + tires vs. winters sized for PP wheels).

You are right it's very close. Differents between Blizzaks for PP and AMR 19x8.5 and blizzaks is around $430. The main deal there is I loose a reason to buy 20's for summers. Oh the hard decisions in life #firstworldproblems!
