My local tire supplier already says there will not be too many Michelin PA4 255/40/19 being made right now, therefore, if you really need them, better order them as early as possible.

The offset for the front & rear is a bit different.

I went with:
F - 19 * 9 et 32 255/40/19
R - 19 *10 et 34 255/40/19

Same as the stock spec. & configuration

The downside is I cannot rotate the front & rear even with the square setup.

It looks fine for the rear, but, is 2.17% smaller in the front. If you add that to how much the tires will shrink with tread wear it's floating pretty close to 3%.

Im also a big fan of a square winter setup I can rotate without dismounting so Im looking at ordering a set of CCW Corsair's in 19x9 ET35. Has anyone heard anything else about fitment and sizing for winters? Am I looking at trouble by trying to keep the front and rear wheels identical?
