I was on Tire rack to compare and find the correct tire measurements for a 20' and a 19' rim.

I was looking at my favorite tire in 20' which was the all-season Continental DWS, but they didn't have the rear tire available in those measurements.
My next choice was a summer Continental DW's. I didn't look into these too much, but they got really good ratings.
Has anybody tried out the Conti DW's? I also noticed that the conti dw 20' was a little cheaper than the 19' I wonder why..


Tire rack gave me these measurements, are they the correct measurements?
Front Optional 20" 245/30-20
Rear Optional 20" 295/25-20

Front Optional 19" 245/35-19
Rear Optional 19" 275/30-19

thanks

As those 20inch if your car is not lowered you can choose example 285/30/20 and 245/35/20 tyres.
It's more comfortable for you if you have more rubber there..
