I always use tire rack or a local place that matches their prices.

305-30-19's, you'll never find a budget friendly 315 anymore.

Hankook RS3's are on closeout (old stock) on tirerack.

Is a 305 30 the same height as a 315 25?

MPSS @ Tire Rack for $333each... 305/30/19. You can buy the correct front to get the right rolling diameter... all the info is on here do a search. I can't remember off the top of my head... 245? or something..

Then I think you are stuck with 315s if you want to keep the AWD... or other option is buy 4 new tires w/ the 305's. I personally love the look of the meatier 305's much more than the rubber band looking 315's.

235 & 305 works fine together, lots of people run that setup myself included.
