congrats on the new purchase. what color and post some pics!!!

i like the 19 x 8.5's with a 42 offset. looks nice. rides decent. does not rub even with a 1.5" drop.

try doing a search though.. most of your questions already have many many answers.

I have 19X8.5 w/ a +42 offset too, and it looks great. I'm dropped about 2" and there is no rubbing.

If you do end up going w/ 19X8.5, i'd suggest 245/35/19 for tires, since it'll give you a little bit more protection around the rims.

Link to Tire Calculator That's a good website for calculating rim+tires size. General rule is to keep it as close to stock as possible.

Welcome,



I have ronjon inspyres, 19x8.5 on 245/35/19 with a 1 inch drop. No problems with rubbing. Check the photo gallery for wheel/tire ideas. Ronjon makes some good rims.
