Any combo of the four sizes above is safe though.
Wont the 245 up front rub? I prefer not to roll fender or modify the radiator stuff. If they wont rub I'll buy the 305 rear and 245 front of not can I still do 235 front with 305 rear without wrecking the front coupler? I am still awd

Michelin is not making 315 25R19. The only manufactures are Conti, Toyo and Nitto (Toyo owns Nitto) Ask how many folks are running Nitto NT01's..
In order to run Michelin you will need to pick a difference tire size.

Which continentals? I can't seem to find any at all.

Also what are your thoughts on running 305 out back?

I went to these - my car is lowered to GT2 specs, Pss-10's, absolutely no issues, love the ride. They are a great option for 19" wheels on an AWD 996TT.

Had the same decision to make and wanted to stay with Michelin so went with
245/35/19
305/30/19

No rubbing up front, lowered on H&R springs. With the right offset, no issue. This is on 19x8.5 and 19x12 so rear is a little stretched and not as squared on the rim as I’d like. But Pilot Sports have been awesome so it’s a small sacrifice.

(And I absolutely despise Nitto Invo’s. Personal opinion but absolute garbage as far as grip. Ran them on a couple cars in the last because of limited options and told myself I would never do it again)

Only because of stuff I previously saw. I would order 305 rear 245 front setup as long as I can confirm no rub up front if not I dont really want to go 295 but the issue is nobody knows the offset of my wheels and getting a hold of ADV1 isnt easy.

As soon as I know it wont rub and wont ruin coupler I'll order. If you know 235 size that works with 305 size that wont break anything please let me know. I do a couple blasts to 150 often in my car so just want to not worry.

Checking in on how you've gotten on with this setup. Any rubbing? I have BBS CH-R's with 19x8.5 in the front and 19x12 in the rear. Looks like those are the only tire specs that would work with Michelins.
