275's on OEM 19's?

Hey,

Planning to replace my stock 245's to 275's in the rear, anyone got pics of 275's on the stock sport rims? and also should i leave the front tires as it is, or should i replace them with the 245's?

Edit: is it possible to put 285's in the rear? is it safe?

thanks

Check out my photo gallery. I think the first 10 photos or so are of my stockers with 255 front and 275 rear on stock 19's. They are fine. 285 will work and look great but I didn't get them because they were out of stock when I bought tires and I was impatient.

Will the dealer give you warranty crap about going to 245/40 & 275/35 from 225/45 & 245/40?

Here you go, this is 275/30/19 on the rear:



Personally I was going to put 245's on the front but I think when I re-order i'll stay small with the 225. I also was looking for 285 for the rear but I found the 275's for a good price.

thanks for the info guys, so the 285's would fit perfectly? would there be any issues? Safety?, and lastly would the tires stick out? im planning to have them flush, so i could drop it as low i could.

+1 this is the setup im going with. its really close to stock height so dont have to worry about my odometer or cruise control.

No. They are 1 cm wider than 275. You won't be able to see any difference.

any benefits or downfalls from having bigger tires than stock sizes? I am going to need to buy tires soon too.

275mm and 285 mm at the equator of the tire. tred width can vary very slightly from brand to brand.
