I am currently running 235/35/19 front and 315/25/19 rear on 19x8.5 front and 19x11.5 rears wheels on a 2002 C4S.

I was wondering if anyone was running anything different on 19inch wheels.

Anyone on here running different tires size combos on wide body 996 awd that is safe for the differentials?

That's what I've been running for some time with no issue.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Did a search and I'm not finding anything current on this topic. I am currently running 235/35/19 front and 315/25/19 rear on 19x8.5 front and 19x11.5 rears wheels on a 2002 C4S. Need a new set of tires and I am having a hard time finding tires in these sizes. Anyone on here running different tires size combos on wide body 996 awd that is safe for the differentials? Looking for suggestions or I'll be going back to the factory 18s.
Yes, these are the only 2 options I've found in these sizes. Toyo Proxes also is discontinuing the tire in these sizes. I was wondering if anyone was running anything different on 19inch wheels. I've seen some say they put a 305/30/19 in the rear but is it safe to have a larger diameter on the rear? I get that this would make it taller in the rear (25.2" vs 26.2") and is this safe for the differentials?
The number that I always see thrown around is that you shouldn’t have a difference of greater than 3% between the front and rear wheel/tire diameters. I have no idea if this information is correct or not, but it’s the most common advice given on the forums. If you believe that advice, then 25.2 and 26.2 wouldn’t be recommended.
I am also thinking of going the 19” route with my 03 C4S. I’ve read about the 3% rule many times. With using the calculator app I have, I have been thinking of going with
245/35/19’s and 305/30/19’s.
These calculate out to be a 1.8% difference.
Anybody have any experience with these sizes?

Rear size is fine, but 245/35 tires won't fit in the front unless you wanna ruin your fender liners from rubbing, ask me how i know, lol. At least not without going with a wheel that has a bit more offset. Even though it sounds like a minuscule difference, 235/35's will work just fine and are within that 3% ratio front to back at 2.78%. That's what I've been running for some time with no issue. Hope that helps.
No they won't, on a C4S if you lower it you can go to the 305. In any case 315 is going to be too wide , the fronts are pushing the limit as well.
A lowered C4S can handle a 245 front and 305 rear.

No sir, the car was purchased with Carrera Classics, but they were NB fitment and I didn't wanna keep it on spacers (just a personal preference). So i ditched those for wheels in the following spec: F: 19x8.5 et. 45 | R:19x11 et. 52 and et.40
