Tom,
I got one more question about tire sizes for 19x9 and 19x10 rims:
How bad is to mount 255/35R19 instead of 265/35/R19 on the rear? Front tires already bought 235/40/R19.

Hey, I'm able to help answer! putting a 255/35 is very minimal stretching and shouldn't have any problem mounting to 10 inch wide wheel. a 255 is still a 10 inch wide tire, so just a little smaller than OE recommended. This would also help with any kind of concerns with clearance since the tire is just a tad smaller.

Hi Apex team! I like driving/tracking my VS-5RS in 18x9 ET25 with 255mm tires on my G20 330Msport.
They fit perfect with my KW V3+camber plates and don’t even need any spacers.
Unfortunately the ML-10 are not available in this same size.(only 19’ for G20) so my question is:
If I pick the 19x9 ET25 and still running 255 tires on them, do I have to really do alignment if I switch (let’s say 1 time per week or two) from 18’(vs-5rs to my 19’(ML-10) and vice versa?
Basically being able to pass from a daily car to a track car when I have to go lapping nights let’s say.

Thank you by advance!

Hey! A 255/35 is definitely possible on a 19x9 ET25 with a direct fit. 3-5mm front spacers may be required with certain aftermarket suspensions that reduce inner clearance. Just note if you ran the corresponding tire size of 275/35, it will not be X-drive compatible.
