2017~2024 What size wheel/tire can the CX-5 handle?

[GenuineR]

I own a 2018 CX-5 touring that currently has 225/55R19 I just moved from Arizona to Colorado and want to get an extra set of wheels with snow tires so I can switch between them for different seasons (obviously). Ive been looking on fbmarketplace and found e decent deal on never used wheel/tire package. (specs below) But it seems like they would be almost too big. I hear people running 245/50 but haven’t seen anything for 245/55.

TIRES
Brand: Nokian
Type: Hakkapeliitta R2 SUV tires
Size: 245/55r19
WHEELS
Brand: Drag
Type: Dr67
Wheel Size: 19x8 5x4.5 (5x114.3) Black 40MM

For snow tires, the narrower, the better.

225/55/19=28.7" dia.
245/55/19=29.6" dia.

at ET40 a 29.6" 245/55/19 will probably rub something while turning full lock. even if it doesn't, a taller+heavier+wider tire setup will decrease performance, handling and fuel economy since you are heightening gearing, increasing rotating+unsprung weight and rolling resistance. it will also reduce inner fenderwell clearances, especially with ice/snow accrual and sling more up the sides with lower offset.

imo for winter, you should decrease the rim diameter to a 16" or 17", 7"ish wide, ET45ish with a 225 or 235 wide tire, at an aspect ratios that keep the tire diameter at or near the OEM diameter, 28.7"ish +or-

Another consideration is brake caliper clearance. Depending on the year/trim some rims will fit on the back axle but not on the front.

Does not rub with Corksport coil springs. IT looks like it does, but it doesnt.
I very much doubt you could go any wider; Very aggressive fitment, and would clear any brake kit, including the Corksport BBK. You could probably do a 20x10 40, but thats a maybe; I can't even get my pinkie between my front tire and the strut.
