Has anyone tried running same size tires/stock staggered rims?

[D/\rK•650]

Im wondering if anyone has tired running 305 30 19 tires on all 4 corners with stock 10.5 and 11 inch rims? Does this setup work ok? Just seems if that would work good then i would be able to buy alot of different brand tires as there are many in 305 30 19 without buying new rims. Just many more options. Any thoughts ?

The stock Trofeos tires have me tripping, worrying about them wearing out so dam fast. Mine are still fine but before you know it 10,000 miles is here. Just trying to prepare. Any thoughts are welcomed

My understanding is the Trofeos are a track compound tire. Unless you're throwing your DH around ALL THE TIME like one would on a track (which you should not be); it makes more sense to go to a harder rubber compound for street use. That's just me though. Check out the Tire Rack if you haven't already. Their tire comparison tools and user/owner reviews are very helpful. Good luck!

Yeah no big deal to run 305s on 11 inch wheels. It's very common.

Great question. It seems it's OK to run a square set up on stock wheels. That'll suit me.
Ya gotta love forums.

Yes, i have with the GT 19” staggered rims. I have 2 sets of staggered rims. The summer set with staggered tires and my winter with square 255/40R19. So far so good,.
