Tire size Help!!!
My front wheel is 19x9 +31
My Rear wheel is 19x10.5 +35 I was running tire size: Front Tires 245/30/19 Rear Tires 275/30/19 I keep getting a flat on my rear tires. I was wondering if I should change it to Front Tires 245/35/19 Rear Tires 285/35/19 I want to add mor meat. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Going to have some nasty understeer with such small fronts especially if you move up to a 285 in rear. Having a wider tire is not going to prevent you from getting flats in the rear, thicker sidewall will absorb impact better though.
Whats causing the flats? If its from hitting potholes a thicker sidewall will help 275/35 vs the 275/30, will also improve ride quality.

What is the cause of the flats? Hitting stuff or maybe a bad wheel?
