Tire Size For 19x8 w/ +45 Offset?
I just placed another order for 19x8 with +45 offset wheels and wanted to go 225/35/19 for my tires, but the guy at the shop insisted I go with 235/35/19.
He told me the tires might not cover the endge of the rims properly if I go with 225/35/19. If that is true, then that'll be real ugly. I also have Comptech Sport Springs so I would hate to increase the chance of rubbing if I go 235/35/19.
Do you guys think I'll be alright with 225/35/19 tires or would 235/35/19 tires be a better option?
Thanks.

The recommended (or ideal) wheel width for 225/35's would be 8". Not sure who you're buying these from but I suggest you RUN, not walk away from them as they don't know much about fitment.
FWIW - 8" +45 is on the extreme end - be ready to deal with rubbing when you get them on.

I'm thinking that you'll rub without rolling your fenders. But on the safe side I would go with 225/35. If you go with a higher offset I'd go with 235/35.
