Summer tires?

[mech_e]

Is anyone with the 19" wheels putting summer tires on them? I'm having a hard time finding anything that will fit. Being in MN, I was looking at a set of 18" mazdaspeed wheels off of CL to use for winter tires. Would I be better off putting winters on the 19's and summers on the 18s?

Eh... Pretty much all of your good summer tire options are going to need a wider wheel than stock. There are a few summer options in 245/50R19, but nothing outstanding.

What are the 18" wheels that you're looking at? Are they the MS3 wheels?

Edit: Then I looked a little further down the page on the 245/50R19 search results, and noticed the Pilot Sport A/S 3 - it's not a true summer tire, but it's all the grip you'd need on a CX-5.
