Some help on tires and wheel

I'm about to get these Roderick rw6.
http://www.elementwheels.com/proddet...2Drw61985bklip

Specs are 19x8.5
Offset is 40
I'm trying for that flush look. Not too aggressive but lining up right inside the fender tucked, cause I don't like tires being further out than the fender.

Ok for the tires, should I run 235-35-19 or 245-35-19 all around? I will be lowering my car a bit more than where I'm at now.

if you are planning to lower more, maybe get 235's?

245/35/19.. with a +40 offset I think you'll be fine.

235/35/19 is a very slight stretch on a 8.5

^ haha this guy, always advertising that stretch!!


hoad, in the pic you look the same height as me, if not maybe even lower. so i think you will be ok with 235. you MIGHT even be ok with 245's, but i can't comment for sure since my wheels are more aggressive, so 245's on mine will rub.

it's really hard to decide, i agree. because it all depends on your height, size/offset, camber, etc.

with your current height, i think 245's would be fine, but if you wanna lower more, you might have to go 235's, unless you wanna have no finger gap and tuck some tires with 245s, but might rub

or 9.5 all around


8.5 +35 is pretty good though. wont need too much work to fit those. you MIGHT even be able to run bigger tires, but of course, depends how low you get.
