Best tire / tire size for 19" rims

335 oClock · 09-27-2011, 08:16 PM

I will soon change my wheels to 19', won't say what kind just yet :P

I never drive in snow or ice, I want something with good performance and a decent ride.

Can I push as far rims 19x8x5 front and 19x9.5 rear and 295/40ZR19 for the rear and 245/40ZR19 front?
What would be my safest bet on rim and tire sizes to not roll my fenders

Too big tires, try 245/35/19 and 275/30/19 if you want somthing larger than the common 235/35 and 265/30 combo.

Yes ^^ that's Wa I'm running. The front right tire rubs a little bit on the oil cooler vent. But no biggy just gotta play with it.

The sizes you have are too wide. Recommended is 235/265 for a rub free guaranteed fitment with a 8.5 +35-40 front and a 9.5 +33-35 rear.

19x9.5 +33 with 245/35
