Tire Question/Help
Need new tires. I have TSW 19X8 rims with Nexen N7000 235/35 tire. Really like the tire, so going back to them. That tire is now discounted so I’m going to purchase the N7000 Plus. Only thing is they don’t offer 235/35. Closest to that is 245/40. Will my rim fit that tire without issue? Will I have any issue with rubbing? I figured not from the research I’ve done, but wanna see what others think or have experienced. TL is lowered Tein coilovers. Thanks

The new size will be a lot taller, and a little wider.
tire rack has guides on what sizing will fit what rim. Ideal fitment depends on the ACTUAL section width of that individual tyre, and a few other things.
Generally speaking, a 245/40 is a little too wide for a 8" wheel. But...it should be fine.

The dimensions are general and aren't tire specific but you can see it's a big difference.

Ugh. I hope I didn’t screw myself. I purchased the tires yesterday from Amazon. All the info I found, I knew they were taller/wider, but all the searching around didn’t think it was gonna be that big an issue. You’re making it seem like it’s gonna be a real issue and rub greatly?

Update....tires were too wide with how much my car is lowered. Would have had to raise coils a little and roll fender for it not to rub. So will be looking into 235/35 and be done with it. Thanks for the help...
