Ive given up on the official wheel fitment thread.....every time you search it gives you the wrong section. I don't mind a small small stretch but still want the tire to perform as intended. Im looking for pics of:
19x8.5 225/235/245 35 sidewall preferred but ill take what i can get
19x10 with 245/255/265 (how much stretch will the 245/255 have)
yes, u i went with
Front: 245/35/19 but 235/35/19 would have matched the rears much better as far as fitment and looks.
Rear 275/30/19 still very small stretch, looked good
since when running 225 on 8.5 is extreme? I got a 215 on 8.5 and its a very small stretch
Oh my.. although I feel that I was referring to the size on the rear (although not so extreme to some but extreme to others) this was an old and pre-mature comment on my part.. since then I have seen some stretch where the inside lip was damaged because of the stretch and some very very negative camber settings.. So to answer the question, no 225 is not an extreme stretch on a 8.5..
