Default Will 245 40 19 & 305 30. R19 work?

Hello, looking at a 2004 with these size tires on it, of course ABS & traction control lights are on.
The car looks great this way. Can it be corrected? What can be done to correct?
Thanks

The tire size is not likely to be the problem. You need to use the dic and pull the codes to get an idea of what is really causing the problem. You should do this on any C5 you are considering purchasing.

IF the TC/AH are lit it is not because of the tires, you have 1/2" offset front to back and that should not cause the lights to go on. When you pull the DTC codes, make sure the engine is running and you drove it around the block, look at the C codes and make sure there are no C1214 or C1287-1288 codes as those are major issues to fix. There are many more DTC that can cause problems but those are the ones I would look for.
