Hello all
i am back in the market for tires, my Goodyear Wranglers have been great. While looking at prices i have noticed a few brands now have a 255/60/19 and 255/65/19. my question is will these larger side wall rub while on full lock turning or will they rub in access mode. has anyone put these large side wall tires on there cars. General grabber do the 60 and Goodyear do the 65.
Cheers.

255/60R19 GG AT3 fit without any issues. These have the advantage of having a slightly stronger carcase than almost all 255/55R19, being LI 113. The sidewalls don't pinch like my earlier 255/55R19 Pirelli AT did on a D4 but they do make the ride a little harsher. I have them on my MY12 L322 on D4 rims where they do an excellent job on sealed roads and gravel roads, whether dry or sloppy mud. They were for a short while fitted to my son's D4 whilst he awaited the arrival of his 18" tyres and he noticed the harsher ride too, harsher than his Razr AT811 265/65R18. I got my tyres shipped out from Tempe Tyres in Sydney.

The 255/60/R19 is very close in overall diameter to the fairly common 265/60/R18 which doesn’t rub in any position or height
