OEM staggered wheels: 235 vs 225 in front

yangryeddie · 12-07-2021, 09:00 PM

Couldn't find a straight answer to this based on prior threads. Looking to get new tires on staggered set of OEM wheels, the 8.0 front and 8.5 rear. Will keep 255/35/19 in the rear, but in the front was debating either 235/40/19 or the stock 225/40/19. Any actual difference in performance? Any downside to doing 235?

Somewhat similar topic. If I'm moving from 791M square --> 792M staggered wheels, can Discount Tire Co just use my original TPMS? Thanks.

Do you have RWD or x-drive?
If it's the latter then 235/40/19 would result in the rolling circumstance difference being too great.
RWD shouldn't have any issues.

Don't think it make much difference making front 235.

TPMS is the same, doesn't change by rim style. You can fit it to any rim.

Car is RWD, good to know they can just swap the TPMS on, thanks!
