Can I use 235/35/19 on my 2015 CX-5?
I would like to ask if anyone has used 235/35/19 on a 2015 CX-5 GT. Do I need to make any modifications?

The thing is, nobody is likely to use 235/35 R19 tires on a CX-5. Why? They are way smaller in diameter than the OEM tires; if you have them mounted on your car your speedometer and odometer will indicate higher speed and more miles than actual.

Thank you @shipo. I purchased a set of used 19" Ruffino Boss rims and they came with the tires.tires have 35% thread on them, I thought I could use them while I look for a new set of tires, but was wondering if they would damage my car.

No, I doubt you'll damage your car, but your engine will be running higher RPMS at any give speed and your speedometer and odometer will be off by a pretty fair margin.

235/35/19 would be too small in diameter as shipo pointed out. I assume you could use 235/55/19 though, you could double check with a dealer.

Thank you for your input. I will contact the dealer and inquire. I have looked into new tires and I think I will go with the 235/50/19. They will work I think. |

If you run your new tyres, your speedo will be reading 70mph when your actual speed would be 60mph. Big difference. 12.83%.

Ran 235/50/19 for 30k miles; even had 235/40/19 winter tires, lots of unsafe fun on those.
Those all were running on a paid off, expired warranty 17 non-turbo so I had fun with it |
