225/40/19........56k beware

225/40/19 tires don't look half bad, now imagine having a 50mm offset, ahem... That's the setup I'm running with when I get the wheels...
by the way, this was a members pics, not mine.
here are the wheel specs:
42 offset/19x7.5 moda r7/1.75 front,1.5 rear/

and the car is ashunboi024's

I'd trade'em for some headers if anyone's interested.

Very nice, I have always liked the classic look of teh Moda R6. I wondered if anyone had them on a CL in 19's.

235/35 on a 19 inch rim is the closes we get to a stock diameter. I still think that size will through the speedo off. Secreasing the contact patch and increasing the sidewall doesnt mean it will even out either.

i know 245/40/19 wont work on the cl but it will on the new tl... the reason i bring that up is b/c there are a lot more tire options to go w/at the latter size
