I purchased a BBK and can no longer use my 18" 219's for winters. Therefore, I will purchase a dedicated set of 19" OEM 359 ZCPs for my winters. What size winter tires should I get? obviously for next year

A) 235/35/19 & 255/35/19 or
B) 235/40/19 & 255/40/19 or
C) 245/35/19 & 265/35/19

My guess is you are going to tell me A

Thanks, Jeff
Just an FYI for everyone. As I mentioned above, I cannot minus one size from 19s to 18s for winter because I have a BBK. As such, I have been looking for snow tires for 6 months to put on my 19' OEM 359's. I had my heart set on Blizzak LM-32s or Alpin PA4s. Unfortuneately, Blizzak LM-32 only come in 265/35/19 (not 245/35/19)...And Alpin PA4s only come in 245/35/19s (not 265/35/19s). The only matched set I could find was Pirelli Sottozero Series II... which I didn't want.

Therefore, I ended up purchasing Blizzak LM-32s in 275/35/19 and 255/35/19, they have different speed ratings (fronts are 93H and rears are 98V) which is why they don't show up as a matching set anywhere. I am very happy, they are awesome, looking forward to heavy snow. Cudo's to Tire Rack for delivering them the next day...which is remarkable.
