I know a lot of folks buy tires on the internet....but, what if you get one shipped to you that takes like a pound of weight to balance?? Or, if they are old stock??I would pay a little more to buy them locally. my 2 cents

would 245/35/19s and 255/35/19s be better than 245/35/19 and 275/35/19?

you are talking about 2 completely different tires...you say the michelen is a/s which means it's all season...the toyo T1R is all performance orientated for wet and dry...so it depends on what they are for...i have had a set of toyo T1R's and i can say from experience that they were great...only changed because of a flat and i didn't want to wait for delivery...they are nearly impossible to find in a store....they give a steady break away when pushed and grip well in high speed turns like on and off ramps....all IMO

+1

Don't forget to check the date codes on the tires.
