Rim fitment

If i were to have 19x8.5 all around 35 off set.
What tire size should i get? Would it cause any rubbing issue? The car isn't lowered.
And how flush would it be to the fender compared to my OEM 18 inch wheels.

Thanks in advance.

I would say 245/40/19 tire size, the same size that would come stock on a 2012 advance with the oem 19's.
It would not rub at all, even if you were lowered you can still run a +35 offset.
As it is they would sit pretty flush with the fenders when looking from the front or rear, but you will still have a gap between the tire and fender. It'll look much better with a drop but still looks good without.
Look at pics of the TL with the oem 19's for fender/tire gap reference but not flushness though.

Thanks for the info.
Would it be possible to go with a wider tire ? 255 265?

A 255/40/19 would still work it'll be a little taller of a tire by about .30 of an inch, a 265 may be getting a little tall though in a 40 series and if you go to a 35 series it'll start looking a bit odd with a stock height

I'm running 255/40x19's. Maybe you can get a feel for the slight tire height difference. It is a bit beefier.
