Re: What tire sizes for 22/24?

No, the same sidewall height, to make the both look the same tire hieght but a 24 in back. I think the 265/35/22 is 3.5in and the 305/30/24 is too tall at 4.2.

Re: What tire sizes for 22/24?

I think we decided on a 255/30/22 front and 275/30/24 rear. I was talking to my suspension guy, guy that bagged it, and if I did the 265/35/22 then a good matching sidewall height rear tire was too tall. These sizes we decided on put us at 28dia front and 31.5 rear.

I am running 22x8.5 in front with 235/30-22 and 24x10 in rear with 275/30/24. Those two profile match and both sizes have very little sidewall.

Re: What tire sizes for 22/24?

I would go with 265/30/22 up front and 285/30/24 or 295/30/24(not cheap) out back. The overall diameter would be 28.26 and 30.73. A 275/30/24 looks too stetched on a 24 in my opinion. I'm running 265/30/22 toyo and 285/30/22 yokohamas on my smoothies.

That 295 is about 12 inches wide, too wide for me. 9.5 front amd 10in wideback wheel.
