bluejeep Posted March 29, 2017 Report Share Posted March 29, 2017 2016 R/T AWD Installed cooper discoverer SRX in size 245 x 55 x 19. They justttttttt fit. Closest fit is on top of the front tire, where the tread is 3/16" below the spring support on the strut. See pic About .9" wider and 1.1" taller than stock 225 x 55 x 19 Kumho (which are dead after only 36k miles!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkeaton Posted March 29, 2017 Report Share Posted March 29, 2017 Looks good. 36,000 miles is pretty good life out of an OEM tire. We got just over 40k on our stock Kumho's. I'm not complaining a bit. 2late4u 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfurth Posted March 29, 2017 Report Share Posted March 29, 2017 Yeah, I'll second that 40,000 mile OEM tire tread life. Every vehicle I've ever owned around that 40,000 mile mark needed new tires. It's just how it is. Also, we really don't have a whole lot of choices for the standard 225-55R19 tires. And none of them can be had for anything less than a limb and a first born. jkeaton and 2late4u 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2late4u Posted March 29, 2017 Report Share Posted March 29, 2017 (edited) try a little different size and buy off discount tire online during a holiday for the best discounts plus use their credit card takes just a few minutes and save even more free shipping with them, instead of tire rack that charges for shipping, i saved about $ 250-300 for a set for my 2014 19 inch crossroad. i went with 235 55 19 almost same size 1 mph faster then speedo says so easy to keep up with. they were the best price for the different size's i checked for the same tires....

nehvada Posted March 29, 2017 Report Share Posted March 29, 2017 (edited) with 245/55 the speedo is 3% off. why not use 255/50? this would be the nearly exact fit. Edited March 29, 2017 by nehvada jkeaton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluejeep Posted March 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2017 I'm not at all concerned with the speedometer accuracy, sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PGRChaplain Posted November 19, 2017 Report Share Posted November 19, 2017 Mama's Sebring Convertible came with Bridgestone Tires, they didn't last 30,000 mi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Harshbarger Posted November 20, 2017 Report Share Posted November 20, 2017 (edited) I'm a big fan of cooper tires. I'm sure they'll serve you well. The def. fill up the tire well better than the stockers. I may have to look into them when I need my OE tires replaced. Have you noticed any ride difference or noise level while driving?

bluejeep Posted November 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2017 They feel very secure cornering, and are much more quiet than oem. Ride is nice Steven Harshbarger 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Harshbarger Posted November 20, 2017 Report Share Posted November 20, 2017 I really dislike the OEM tires. I think they're loud. Awesome, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jkeaton Posted April 8 Report Share Posted April 8 I doubt 17" wheels would clear the calipers since your vehicle came with 19". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
