Tires selection for 5GT LCI

coibeo2610 · 09-09-2019, 04:16 AM

Hi fellas,

I've been lurking here for a while to read all great and useful info from people.

I would like to ask yall about the tires seletion for my newly acquired 19" 437M wheel.

Ive heard that the combo 255/45/19 and 295/40/r19 Michelin super sport 4s are amazing for 19" 437M. Would these combo look great on the GT? Is there any rubbing ? Can I do 265 on the front?

Otherwise, if there is another combo that would fit better for the GT, please feel free to chime in.

Thanks a lot!

Hey I have a GT but you need to go the the Facebook GT site we have thousands of GT owners on that site. Anyway you can go with 255 the biggest up front and would highly recommend staying no bigger then 285 in rear any bigger and you will rub. I am running larger tires on my GT to fill the gap without lowering especially these roads we are running in the states. 245/45r20 and 275/40r20 fill the gap nicely and plenty of protection for rims. Note: the speedo will be slightly off with that setup 60mph will be 62.7mph.

My 2 cents
