    235/55 with 255/55 is almost exactly a 3% difference - borderline acceptable.

    Luckily, this tire is also available in 245/50/18. Matched with 255/55/18, you get almost exactly 5% difference - nearly identical to stock.

    Well all I went with Firestone Firehawk Wide Oval AS on all four corners and am very happy. These things are super quiet and handle good. Went with stock sizes.

    I have the Nitto NT555's on front & back. The fronts are 255/45-18 and the rears are 265/50-18. Diameters are just about identical to the OEM BFG's. I don't care for the look of mis-matched tread patterns.
