As fall approaches, I'm thinking about snow tire sizing for my PP1 GT. I've got it down to three options on sizing and I'm bouncing back and forth on them.
Option 1: Snow tires same sizes as summer tires. 255/40-19 on 19x9 (front) / 275/40-19 on 19x10 (rear)
Option 2: Square setup. 245/45-19 on 19x9 all around
Option 3: Same-width setup. 245/40-19 on 19x9 (front) / 245/45-19 on 19x9 (rear)
Anyone have any thoughts?
Option 1: Snow tires same sizes as summer tires. 255/40-19 on 19x9 (front) / 275/40-19 on 19x10 (rear)
Pros:
- Know they fit.
- No speedometer / stability control issues
- Pretty damn wide if it snows
- Can't rotate between seasons to even out wear.
- Blizzak LM-32 or Pirelli Sottozero only
Option 2: Square setup. 245/45-19 on 19x9 all around
Pros:
- Should fit.
- Same rear diameter, so no speedometer issue
- Can rotate F<->B between seasons to even wear.
- Lots of tire options
- Front tire 3/4" larger diameter than stock
Option 3: Same-width setup. 245/40-19 on 19x9 (front) / 245/45-19 on 19x9 (rear)
Pros:
- Should fit.
- Same rear diameter, so no speedometer issue
- Front tire close to stock diameter (1/3" smaller)
Cons:
- Limited tire options
- Kind of an oddball setup
- Can't rotate between seasons to even out wear
Anyone have any thoughts?
