as you can see the front is kinda starting to stretch so any smaller I think would be too much stretch. That would mean a crap ride, worse handling, and more prone to wheel damage with a smaller tire.

Thanks for that info ill go with a 275/30 rear instead. Any rubbing issues?

I finally ordered my tires but had a quick question about running a 275/30/19 tire. Am i going to have to roll my fenders? If someone can please let me know. Thanks in advance.

i was going to run a 265 but a couple of places i talked to said by running a 265 might be to much stretch.. and a 275 would be a better way to go. If anybody is running the same setup please post reply
