235/35/19 give you the same diameter as the stock rim.

Check the link.

Offset? Width? Dropped? And why would you want more camber?

when i make a right or left turn it scrapes the fender in the rear ...the rear has a alittle camber so if i get bigger tires like 235 or 245/35/r19 would the tire rub more and be more on a slant????
and how do you put a picture from my computer so i can show you

Going with a wider tire will just add to your problem. 245's would be almost an extra inch wider than your 225's. Your camber would stay the same. What brand of tires do you have? I have 225/35/19's and I still have a rubbing problem.

dude, can you somehow post some close up pics of the wheel and tire, i'm dying to see what 225/40 looks like... from every angle, PLEEEEEASE! by the way, 235/35/19 is ideal, but skinnier...
