But you’re using a different Michelin tire. You have. 4s in the front and regular super sport in the rear ? Because they don’t make 4s in that size. Plus you’re riding higher I’m the front than the rear. A 275/40R19 is taller than a 305/35R19. A little awkward. If anything. Keep the 275’s and ride 285/40 in the rear.
I don't get why it makes a difference, except for convenience. Buying new Michelins will cost the same (or a little more for size changes) regardless of the wheels they're mounted on. It comes down to whether the cost of the wheels is a good deal or not.
They just came in here to complain about something
It’s not complaining about. “Something”. I’m simply complaining about the fact that the tires the enthusiast stores including LMR offer are sub par. I assume they feel like very few people are going to see value in spending more on the tires than the wheels they just purchased when it comes to stock and possible profit. But It’s a little backwards when you think about it. And that applies to them all from CJs to LMR right down to Lethal not offering the best tires out that actual enthusiasts might want. There should absolutely be a slightly higher end option instead of having to buy wheels from one place and another from a tire shop. That’s all.
Would it be better to run 295s square?
The 305/35/19 overall diameter is 27.7 and the 275/40/19 is 27.4 so I don’t think I’ll even notice the .3 plus the front is lower so it’s not like the front is gonna ride higher then the rear.
Not sure but I was thinking my next set of tires will be 295/35/19 rear just to see if it makes a huge difference and if it doesn’t then I’ll stick with those. My car is a dd and doesn’t see much fun action most the time.
Only talking about the suspension setup I currently have.
Yeah I wanted 4s but they don’t make that size. Unfortunately 305/35/19 is a oddball size and there’s not too many good tires in that size. The Michelin super sport is probably the best street tire in that size.
