This is the first time I have low pro tires, what should I be aware of ? I know to watch out for potholes (already do that with stock). I am scared that they will blow on me or dent. This question sounds kinda stupid but there must be some tips and tricks.

well with a 9.5 width no matter what your going to rub if your dropped and dont have any work to your fenders done. I shaved my fenders so they fit nicely, Im not rubbing right now but thats because I have stretched tires. There are many things that come to play on whether your wheels will rub or not.

The only reason why I am considering 225 is because someone is selling them for dirt cheap. I dont plan on lowering and dont worry much of the height as its fine with me, I just want tires for cheap that can fit properly.

They are brand new with the sticker still attached, not sure of the date right now. He said they are Triangle Talon TR968 for $280CDN. What do you think ?

Im thinking of running a 19x8.5 +45 wheel with 235/35/19 tire and planning on dropping the car wit a Pro Kit. I've gotten my fenders rolled already..is this do-able?

I was thinking of putting some rims on my 99 TL and I was hoping somebody could let me know which ones would be better so...I was thinking of getting one of these 2 in 20s

I'm hoping one of those sets of 20s will fit pretty good if not I was looking at these 18s, but like I said if the 20s can work I'd rather go that route

any opinions or suggestions appreciated, thanks.

offset is how far it sits off ur hub....the lower the number the more it will stick out past ur fenders...stock offset is +55....go out to ur car and feel ur rear fender and u will feel a lip...thats what u have to roll....i have a guy that can do it since hes in around the Chicago area...he does awesome work....
