I am currently running cooper zeon ATR in 19" and one of the front tyre has a bit of camber ware so I am thinking about replacing it . However instead of doing a single tyre I am thinking about replacing it with 2 x good year wrangler as they are more aggressive looking and ware . Is that ok to run different tyre pattern front and rear ?
Anyone done so ? Any effect on the running gear ?

Cheers .

Just keep the diameters consistent.

Thanks bud .

So if I run 255 55 19 would that be ok ? I mean that's the tyre size I was thinking about getting anyway .

Cheers bud

Yes and make sure there's lot a lot of overall diameter difference between the fronts and rears. (Brands vary)

same size, same tread, same construction

front to rear.

Same size.



all must meet or exceed the minimum load and speed rating for the vehicle.
