Hey, I have Kumho Ecsta SPT tires in 245/35/19 and they are too square for my offset (19x8.5 wheel, et 38) - therefore they rub a little in the front on big bumps. Are ther 245's that are rounder at the edges??

I noticed Vredestein (sp?) tires seem to have that trait in 245's. Any other recommendations for 245's that tuck in a little better? (I know, 235's are better, but I prefer 245's on an 8.5" wide wheel.)

With a tire this wide and this low profile, I doubt there will be much difference from one to another. A quick scan of tires we sell in this size show all are virtually the same section width, suggesting there will be little to no difference in the dimension at the shoulder area.
