OK,

I'll give them a little while to settle down and see how that works. I only have about 90 miles of freeway on them so far, but there is some canyon driving in my near future.

I guess I should have checked before I bought the wheels.

255/35-19 or 265/30-19 should be fine

Not even close for the rears.

My rear wheels are 12.5" wide. It will take either 335/25/20 or possibly 345's.

Front's will take 285/30/19.

I think I will have to go with Michelin PS2 or Nitto Invos.
