Default 275/30 ZR19 Tires Fit

According to SteveRS4, 275/30 ZR19 Tires fit and do not rub.

He gave me a call after having 275/30ZR-19 Bridgestone Potenza RE050A Pole Position tires installed. I'm sure he'll report more later on.

Did you hear if it was on stock or aftermarket wheels? Spacers?

Default hmm...2.1% smaller circumference though.

not terrible, but not great either.

285/30/19 is 1.1% smaller, and 295/30/19 would be almost perfect. if the 275's don't rub at all w/o spacers, then the 285's would probably fit with small spacers.

Tire Rack better stock up. I think many of us are looking at these for our next street tires.

perhaps the smaller circumference would cause the speedo to be more accurate...

Default isn't the OEM setup alleged to indicate 'too fast'?

if that's true, the 275's would be indicating another 2.1% faster than that.

Default Size isn't everything, or so I like to believe.

275/30-19 is as large as they make in these Bridgestones. Per the specs at Tire Rack the speedo error should be about 1.5% based on revs per mile on these over revs per mile on my stock tires (814/802 = 1.01496). And as the speed traps and GPS inform us, our speedos are not that precise to start with.
