Lightbulb Staggered Tires Sizes For The Sc 430

I am about ready after hearing all the great feedback from the forum members last week to finally ditch the RF cement tires and enjoy my 02 as I should have done when it was new.

On one of the other forums I read a thread where the owner at the dealers advise went with 245's in the front and 265's in the rear.

Has anyone gone this route and if so what have you seen as the benefit ?

If anyone has a negative comment on doing this staggered arrangement other than of course the rotation issue please chime in.

Thanks

245/35/19s up front, 275/30/19s in the rear. No rubbing for me and I am lowered a bit.

Side view is all dependent on the wheel offset.

If I use the standard/stock rims can I increase front and rear size?

I see you said the dealer advised bigger tyres on the back with the oem wheels. I dont think this would be a good idea as the stock wheel is only 8"wide.

If you had bigger wheels on the back ie 10" then yes bigger tires for more grip.
