New Tires?

Hey everyone I have a 285/35/19 in the rear now. I'm thinking of going to a 265/30/19 so I can avoid rubbing issues when I install my springs. I have 255/35/19 up front. I was thinking of just replacing the rears now until I get some more money, the front has pretty good tread left. When I replace the front I will goto a 245. Is this a good idea to leave the front ones on? Really money is the issue, but if it would be stupid I guess I'd have to save for the whole set.

Hey man, just replace the rear tires for now, if it is a money issue. You'll be fine, there will be no problems with having the tires staggered the way you are doing it. In the end, the rear tires will still be a taller tire than the front. When you get the money, replace the front tires as you said you would.

I think you can run 225/40/19 up front and 255/35/19 in the back or 225/40/19 on all 4's.

Option: Try rolling your fenders first thats cheeper lol you can do it your self. Nothing to it man.
