Default What size stretched tires?

What size tires would you run on a 19x19.5+22 front and 19x10.5+22 rear?

Do you think 9.5 is too wide for the front?

with the offset you have, you should pull a little bit and shave your bumper tab.

all varstoen wheels comes with 9.5 in the front so i guess its about picking the right offset, which i'm thinking +22 would be safe for the front. and also +22 in the rear or maybe a +12 in the rear if i decide to go crazy....

If you wanted to be conservative and be almost like OEM.

8.5" front +42
9.5" rear +45

Those are Work Wheels's Japanese spec for XSA-03C for both 18 and 19".

The tires they recommend for 19 is 225/35/19, 265/30/19.

Oh ok, in that case, best to contact the manufacturer to see what they have in terms of specs which can fit your vehicle.
