Tires just got here hears a picture next to the stock rears. I will get pictures of the fronts tomorrow when I get them mounted. The width seems to be very close to stock. The stock is mounted and the new ones are not mounted. Height is a little bit higher but not very much. More pictures to come tomorrow.
I guess they ARE 285/35s. They look normal on the car (though I'd probably have gone with the 295/30s), but why is it sitting so high (in the first pic, not the pic where it's jacked up)? And let's see the rears!

I agree however, the difference between the front and rear tire ratio would that be enough to throw off the ABS when running a 325/30/20 & 285/35/19 versus a 325/30/20 & 295/30/19...

I'm not saying it would. It was more of an open ended question. Possibly asking, the ratio from the factory sizes versus the 295/30/19 is smaller than the 385/35/19 would that ratio difference throw off the ABS.... geez if that makes sense hahaha

I don't think it would. I'm pretty sure the ABS gives 0 effs about wheel diameter/circumference. It's about how hard you're breaking and whether or not you're about to lock em up. Now I'm certainly no expert, so I could very easily just be talking out of my *** and be way off, but from a logical standpoint, it should have no effect. The only effect the diameter of a wheel should have is the speedo and that's only on the rears (and maybe fuel economy a little).

True! I could be entirely incorrect as well. However, I've read if the circumference of the overall diameter is over 1" from the front to back it throws off the ABS and it'll trigger lights. That's why I thought the 285/35/19 would be a better fit versus 295/30/19.

Those look to be better tires for sure, and will cut back on bent wheels with the taller sidewall. I wish i would have seen this post sooner, and asked if you could put them inline with each other so that we could compare widths to the stock rears.
How are they in hard curves? Do you anticipate them wearing out quicker than a cup 2 tire, or more life? Tread looks to be deeper, so hopefully more life in that regard
