to the original poster... how wide are your wheels? what are your offsets?

19" is not enough information to help you out. We need to know the width...

example: 19x8 +43 offset

your offset is also another important piece of information and can be found on the back side of your wheels. usually located on the inner spoke or inner lip of the wheel. if you get us these numbers, then we can help you with a more accurate set up.

not knowing what your offsets are but i'm pretty confident the rears will be ok. as for the fronts, i suggest going 225 instead of 215. That's quite a stretch for a 9" wheel... unless you like that "VIP-ish" look.
