what tyre for 19's

(1/3) > >>

iainalpine:
hi guys, have just got bought a set of 19" oettinger rz splits for the car and was wondering what size of tyre to go with. either the 225 or the 235/35/19.
what are you guys running on here and are there any problems with the 235's hitting the arch.

full spec of the wheel is 19`x 8.5' 5x112 et35.

cheers

Iain :happy2:

Ooooh that ET is not good, you are gonna have to mod the arch I would say. The standard wheel is 7.5J ET51,check out this wheel calculator to see how much pokeage you will get http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp

VC:
i agree, i think you might have clearance issues

but 235 would be my normal choice

Top Cat:
Your gonna need 215, plus a touch of camber to tuck them under, other wise your gonna have to sit very high.  :smiley:

MongyUk:
I have 215's on my wheels (same spec) with it lowered quite a bit and find that the wheels are fine.
