the 225's have a diameter of 25.16 and are for a rim width of 7.5-9.0
the 235's have a diameter of 25.51 and are for a rim width of 8.0-9.5

which would i be better of with COMPTECH lowering springs and on the falken torque 5 19X7.5, i know it says the 225 with the width but i have seen some run the 235 with this wheel.
which should i get and i dont want a lot of fender room.

has anyone run a nitto tire nt555

has anyone run a 7.5 width tire in the front and a 8 or 8.5 in the rear?????

here is a link for the website for the wheels, it says under the 19X7.5, 42, is this the offset??

If it is a +42 offset on a 19X7.5 --> stick with 225.

 

so would it look stupid if i ran a 7.5 width wheel on a 235, what would it look like or do?
i would rather have a 235 b/c they have the tire i want and it would be a little more rubber between me and the wheels

 

It is not a matter of looking stupid - but more importantly if you will rub with 235.

 

will i rub with the 235/35/19 with a comptech lowering kit??? 19X7.5 wheels +42 offset

 

235 35 18 on a 19" x 7.5" will look like 18" wheels. I have that setup and altho it feels soooo comfortable, the wheels look like 18". I plan on getting 225?35?18s soon. By the way, I have a 50mm offset so i can play with the tire sizes, with a 42mm offset, it might fit with 235/35/18 but it might rub on occasion. stick with the 225/35/19 since it will look better and prolly not rub. good luck.

 

I have run Nitto 555's and with 15k miles they look nearly new, excellent tires.

I'd say stick with the 235's if they wont rub, because 19's ride rough anyway and a 225/35 is like a rubber band.
