If all 4 tires are the same size you are fine. I would think if the wheels were staggered like the OE, then a 275 on a rear rim is going to look stretched though.

A question foir myself,

WHy are the rear tires 35 and front are 40?, or does the wider rear affects it in a way so its no different from the front? But still theres a diameter difference right?

Basically why are rears not the same as fronts

[kashmir]

they are staggered like OE ...that is why I am concerned

If the fronts are 275/45/20 and the rears are 315/35/20 then you need to change the front tires

To pezho405: the aspect ratio has to do with diameter, not width. Wider rear needs a smaller aspect ratio to retain the same diameter as the front. And the wider rear is to handle the extra power on the 'is models. I think there are other threads on tire sizing.

To kashmir: you are good because all 4 tires are the same size, this is actually the best for your drivetrain.
the tires are a little larger than stock, but that should actually improve the accuracy of your speedometer
for the rears being staggered and having the 275 on the 10.5" rim, that's at the limit of acceptable rim sizes for those tires, but you should be ok. The rear tires just won't look as good as the front wheels.
