Hey all, just ordered new wheels in 19x11 all around & was curious if anyone has run the stock size rear MPSS on the front? Wasn't sure about any clearance issues with a little extra tire height up front. Plus I ran across a smoking deal on those tires online but figured I should definitely ask before I bought lol... Thanks in advance!

If I can do it on a non-GT350, you should be able to do it with flying colors on a GT350.

You'll be perfectly fine. 295/35's are only 6mm less in total diameter than 305/35's which could easily be mitigated by a natural slight loss in tire pressure.

what is the difference in weight though, isn't that going to affect handling ?

Caution on this...

If you click show more:
Specs show this is a 255/40ZR18
This is clearly a fuck up and maybe a hack.
Take screen shots and be prepared to receive 255 instead of 305.
Even if they agree to ship you 305 in the end, its gonna be a freakn hassle.

Yeah I guess we'll see... They show 305/30-19 Sport Cup 2s for $217.57 but that description is different too :shrug:

FYI guys, one member already got his 295/35/19 in today, so there wasn’t anything janky about the ad besides about half the details lol. The model number matched up to the title.

305 was $135
295 was $160

I bought the 305 35 19 and a set of 50mm offset project 6GR 7 spokes for my R. A little concerned about the 27.4 diameter of the tires but we’ll see. Need to get the spacers for front. As long as they don’t rub, I’ll be happy.
