Why would you do that? If you want sweet tires on stock wheels go 245/35/19 front 275/30/19 rear. FIts perfect and upgrades grip and high speed stability

Well the 275 were out of my price point and got a good deal on the tires above. (just bought them)
So I take it that it will work? Just not ideal thou right?

Thanks

P.s. Holy crap your car makes some awesome power.

They'll fit your wheels, if that's what you mean. They are close to 1" less in OD. This means the wheel gap in the rear will be much bigger than it should be, and your electronics will be off a bit. Also your load carrying capacity is reduced by 200 lbs, if you bought XL tires. You should never never buy a tire with less load carrying capacity than the stock tires. Handling, don't know, but I surely wouldn't expect it to be better. I'm really surprised that a tire reseller would sell and mount those tires for you. I know, my tire dealer wouldn't.

Price isn't the only consideration when buying tires. IMO, you bought the wrong tires for your Lexus Hi-Performance vehicle.

+1. Reminds me of a last page picture I saw in Car and Driver years ago. The driver is standing on the road looking down at the Ferrari 308 in the ditch with the caption - Good tires...not great tires...

Thanks guys for the input...I'll return these and get 275's

^^^^Better still, IMO, would be 285/30/19
