Tire profile question...

Ok, so I just ordered some 19 inch Nitto Invo's for my True Forged wheels. The rear specs are: 305/30/19 and the fronts are 245/35/19. Obviously the profile size is higher in the front because that is literally all Nitto produces. Will the front profiles be signifincantly higher or no?


Thanks guys!

Here is alink to a tire calculator, if you plug in the numbers it will tell you sidewall height, width of tread, and overall diameter, etc.

Looks like the front tire sidewall will be about .22 inches less and the overall tire height of the front will be .45 inches smaller.

I tried to copy and paste results, but it didn't work.

It will not even be noticeable unless you get out your ruler and show people.

I think it will look just right. And that fat rear tire will look awesome from behind.
