Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I know that this has been posted several times however I am super confused about what tire size to get. My brother gave me a set of rims- 8x19 and 11x19. I have searched this forum and I keep finding conflicting info. I do not track my car. It is simply for daily use. I was able to find the front tire size however I cannot find the rear tire size. I seached around tirerack also and found some strange info their. Can anyone give me a reasonable tire size for the rears. I do not need anything special, just something that will fit on my car and wheel. If it matters, I have a 00 C2. Thanks, Steve

POST 2Original post

the ideal size is 305/25/19. They are hard to find though.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Are there any acceptable alternatives that are easier to find?

POST 4Original post

You should be able to fit following tires on the car (also depends on the offset of the rims): Front: 235/35/19 on 8 inch wheel (as alternative 225/35/19) Rear: 315/25/19 on 11 inch wheel For street use the Falken FK452 is a good tire and priced very fair. They are available in these sizes: http://www.falkentire.com/xhtml/tire...egory=3&tire=1 Here's another thread of someone who had a 315/25/19 on a 996 narrow body car: https://rennlist.com/forums/showthre...ight=315+25+19 I usually use this tire size calculator and compare to stock sizes: http://www.1010tires.com/TireSizeCal...?action=submit

POST 5Original post

I went with Toyo T1R in 235/35/19 and 315/25/19 on my 19" Lobster Claws Great tire - and the correct rolling radius for the 996.

POST 6Original post

The rear tire size can be 295 / 30 / 19 or 305 / 30 / 19 (this is what I have) or 315 / 25 / 19 ( really not necessary and costs more money ). All available at tirerack.com

POST 7Original post

FYI - Toyo T1R 315/25/19 available on FleaBay as here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Toyo-...mZ310075938966 Cheaper than 305/30/19 at TireRack.Com - and the T1R is a better tire IMHO

POST 9Original post

Warning, if your car is lowered or the wheel offsets are not just right 315's may rub. They can fit (but only if everything else is perfect).

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have US M030 setup with Champion springs. Do you think that I would have an issue with rubbing with 295/30/19 or 305/30/19?

POST 11Original post
