I'm looking to run this setup in the back. Anyone try it? Will they fit? I was thinking Michellin PS2s. I've only seen 275 30 19s so far.

There is a reason for that.... a 275/35/19 is 1" larger diameter then stock size.

You would need raise springs and possibly spacers as well for it to fit, depending on rim offset as well.

also your speedo and odo will also be off if not adjusted.

275/30/19 is just much easier.

Running tires that much bigger than stock will have a negative effect on performance (1/4 mile times).

Yeah, if I were you, I'd just run the 30 series. At least you'll still have the same contact patch and not affect your gearing.

Look in my sign, it is possible with 30's. i "dented in" the inner fender just alittle and did not roll or cut the outer.

I may try it next year when the tires are done. The 30's are too stiff for my liking, actually 19's are but that's a moot point :)

I didn't have to do anything to make them fit, just bolt the wheels on and go. I think they'll fit fine with no problems but won't know until its done.

I have the Pedders 5/16 raise rear springs and have 275/30r20 on the back, which is the same diameter as the 275/35r19 you are asking about. It gives the rear a kind of raked look and fills out the back end so it doesn't dwarf the rear tire and wheel.

Edit: 20x10 rear wheel and 19x8.5 front wheel with 235/35r19

That's exactly what I'm running now..........have Pedders drag springs and rolled fenders........a must have to run these. Rim is 9.5" wide also.

I went with 265/35/19's (26.1in tall) they are not much smaller (with wise)than 275/30's but the 265's are just enough to work great with no rolling or cutting of the fender the only problem is there are only 2 tires I have found at that size. (ps2 are one of them)

I also have a 5/8 rise on springs

They should be exactly the same width. The only difference should be the aspect ratio(sidewall).

I've got some drag bags, so I'm thinking I may not need the 5/16 raise springs.
