you can do 275/55/19 and there are more tires available. I actually prefer this size.

I know we've moved past this and it isn't even the topic of this thread... But also being a (somewhat OCD) mechanical engineer I couldn't help it.
FEA = finite element analysis
FMEA = failure mode effect analysis
Two very different things.

Carry on.
