Would I do it? No. Not 30" on that car or any car for that matter. A truck would be a different story.

Open the hood and it's probably the stock engine. Also, 30-series tires have got to ride like ass.

Test drove an SUV last weekend for the wife that had 35 series 20" tires. Definitely a rough ride, went with the less spendy 50 series 19".

The 20's were $500 each on tire rack too; pass on that too since I doubt I'd get 60k out of them like my truck tires.

That poor rotor.

I saw a Nissan Titan yesterday with 30's on it. It was on the back of a flatbed tow truck.

Whats the price on the 19" tires. The more common sizes are normally priced better. Maybe 22" are taking away the sales from the 20" tires.

The 19's are only $270 to $320. Aside from the extra 1" diameter, the tires were extremely different sizes:

255/50/19 (less rigid of a ride, and less concern of pothole damage) vs.
315/35/20 (just a LOT of tire for a kid-haulder )

The 20's came with much more interesting wheels, but not nice enough to justify the added cost.
