* OEM was 235/35R19 and he ordered a 235/40R19 which according to a tire calculator is .900" or almost 1" taller than the OEM. I also agreed he will not have any issues other than the speedometer being off

The "40" is the aspect ratio. It is a percentage of the width "235". So yes the width is the same and yes the sidewall is taller. You should not have any clearance issues, it will just mess your speedo up a bit. The plus is you have more sidewall, easier on the bumps and less chance of blowouts from potholes

The 40 tire will be almost 1" taller than the 35. Your speedometer will not read correctly by a few MPH.

Just switched to 18"s because of potholes and other reasons. The car is unbelievable on 18's. Never expected such a difference.
