    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum.

Hello everyone, looking to put the OEM 19" wheels/tires sizes on my 3.8 AWD. Discount tire expressed concern about the circumference of the rear tires being different from the front tires with OEM tire sizes installed. They said this difference could cause issues with AWD system.

Any thoughts on this? Surely someone has installed the 5.0 19"s on the AWD right?

I have checked Willtheyfit.com and I am fine with fitment but it doesn't address AWD issues with circumference difference.

Thanks in advance.
 
Tires have to be exact match on AWD. You’ll burn up the center diff otherwise. That’s of course assuming traction control doesn’t stop you everywhere.
