Tires sizes for 19" wheels - 285/35 front?

[ukviper]

Going to swap out the PS2's I currently have on my car (93 RT/10) when I pull it out of storage in a couple of weeks. I am liking the Kumho XS or the Nitto Invo, but the Invo seems to be on backorder (6 to 8 weeks). So I am leaning towards the XS, but they only have a 285/35 for the front, any clearence issues with that size? (I would actually prefer to run that size upfront, as I always felt that the 285/30 that’s on there now looks too skinny, and this would fill the wheel arch better) Anybody run that size?

So did this tire end up working for you?

i have the invos and love them, I think the are a great price for what you get and they have pretty much better wet traction compared to the kumho based on what others have said. I think they are worth the wait

The question here is will the 285/35/19 fit on the front of the car without rubbing? I would like to know this as well.

I have not taken the car out of storage yet, too much snow and crap on the roads. Going to be the end of the month.

Well I get my new wheels this week and will be mounting the 285/35/19 so I will let you know if they work by next weekend. Hopefully some good rain to wash the roads down on monday.

Well I can tell you first hand that at 285/35/19 does not fit in the front without rubbing when turning full lock.

Can't answer you on the 19's. I'm running 295/35/18 Invos on the front and have no issues whatsoever.
