I’m seeing a ton of pics/experiences with the OEM 235/50/20 but rarely any with the 245/50/20
The price is almost 90$ cheaper a tire for the 245s so I wanted to see your pics/experiences with either size?
Current : 2022 platinum Awd

A wider (and heavier) tire should lower you MPG's so the cost savings could evaporate in few thousand miles. Also, a different design, even at OEM spec sizing, may lower mpg's (extreme example: a "wilderness" tire more suited for SUV's).

FWIW

I have 245/50/20 on my 21 XSE. I went with them because they were a lot cheaper and didn't change the wheel diameter very much at all.

Ride is a tad rougher with the RX350 wheels and these Pirelli scorpion tires, but there are plenty of other options for tires lol

It will be fine, I used to sell tires and the size difference is minimal. You won't notice any speedometer difference, mileage will not change noticeably, and handling should not be affected significantly.

is there any offset adjustment needed if I want to switch to 245/50/20? Mine is XSE FWD that came with OEM 235/50/20/ Thank you.
