Didn't want to start a new topic for this, so I'll ask here.

I'm getting my first new set of tires for my stock 2014Z (sports package). I'm looking to get the Potenza S-04 Pole Position tires that I've seen recommended.

I know basically nothing about tires, so I want to know if these sizes are okay.

(Keep in mind everything is stock)
Front: 245/40R19
Rear: 285/35R19


Anything I should change?

The stock Potenzas on the sport package wheels are
245/40r19 front
275/35r19 rear

However, upping the length from 275 to 285 is completely fine and you shouldn't have a problem

Awesome. That's what I was hoping to hear. Would you recommend upping the length on the front tires as well or just stick to 245?

If I were you, I'd get 285/40s in the rear just so it'll look even with the front.

Shouldn't t run the 285/40-19. They're 28" tall. The 275/30-19 is 26.6" tall. The 245/40-19 is 26.7" tall. Too much difference in height. Your dash might look like Christmas.
