265 / 35 19 on rears
One of those double take moments, but my recently acquired car appears to have the wrong size tyres on the rears.
I am correct in thinking that they should be 30 profile? The tyres, Conti Sport are new all round and were put on by the dealer. Before I take it up with them, what are the potential issues with running 35 profiles on the rear. (I'm thinking speedo out by a tad) but is there anything else? Thanks |

Online calc gives me a 4% greater circumference and an addtional 1.24 mph at 30 / 2.48mph at 60

I did think your rears looked a little oversize in one photo but thought it must be trick of the eye. They should be a 30 profile yes.

It's the additional diameter of the wheel / tyre comb that concerns me. You're running wider, but your diameter is still the same as stock 265/30/19, if you know what I mean. Currently, my rears are 35/19 so taller than stock. |
