Default Need help with my GS350.

I purchased a pair of wheels that I absolutely love. I知 pretty sure they will fit but a little worred I値l experience rubbing.

Size of wheels are 19 x 8.5 with a +33 offset.

Can someone help me with tire sizes, since I live in NY I was thinking a slightly higher profile would be most suitable.

245/35/19 would work for sure, but a +33 offset up front will be very close. Not sure, I have seen a test fit for +35 in the front, and there was not an issue.

225/40/19 would be too stretched on 8.5 wheel.

some people over spec their tires. It messes with your overall diameter and will give you a false reading on your speedo. It could also make your car look like a dune buggy because it will raise your overall ride height.

Just go with 245/35/19. 35 profile should be fine. Just worried about the front offset.
