Default What is your tire setup on 19" wheels

Curious to know how big or small of tires people are using and if they have any rubbing issues. I just got some 19" but not sure how big or small of tires people are using???? Input would be greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks

Rubbing is highly dependent on your ride height and offset too. I run 215/35 on 19x9 and 235/35 on 19x10 and I still rub because my offsets are relatively low.

I'm running 235/35/19 Front and 265/30/19 Rear.

My offsets are +30 front and +35 rear (my new wheels will have +33rear)

No rubbing. No issues.

two factors determine what tire sizes you should be running to get the most clearance.

1. wheel specs - more specifically, width and offset
2. ride height

having said that, try using the search function for something that has been covered many, many times.

hope this helps.

pretty much what projectdna said all depends on size. my offset is really Conservative +37 all around before i had the cup kit tucking a little tire the front would rub on turns and rear just depends on bumps in the road. tire size im running is 225/35/19 & 265/30/19
