*Still a noob also*

But I know you will need to roll and pull the rear fenders. Its a pretty agressive fitment.

Its aggressive, but how low is your car? That is a factor as well.

varrstoen 2.2.2 19x9.5 and 19x10.5 +22 will have about 3/4" sticking out, You will need super stretch tires with fender mods. Cant be slammed without using camber kits

I have those wheels! :P

Everyone recommends using 225/35-19 and 245/35-19 for the tires. I went with 265/30-19 in the rear myself. I'm slammed on BCR coils - well, I was. I had to raise my car to take people to LA, but yeah, depending on how low you are is gonna be a big factor. I believe if you run 225/245, you'll only need your fenders rolled.

If your trying to go all low and all... A 225/35 & 245/35 will work for u giving you a mild stretch. Just roll the rears and take care of the fender liners in the front plus a camber kit and you will be good to go.

^Natural camber should be enough from my understanding.

I think the tire stretch (225 and 245) and roll-pull (slight pull from rolling the fender flat) should be enough. I know my fronts, 19x9.5 +22 225/35-19 Continental ExtremeContact DW can tuck - might need a small pull if you wanna tuck. The rears, 19x10.5 +22, though, I plan on pulling my fenders even more to tuck since I'm running a 265. :P

On another note, I need a camber kit for the rear. LOL. ;____;

EDIT: And you'll have to cut out of a BUTTLOAD of your fender liner.

My front fenders are rolled and flared a little
I'm sitting on Megan coils I don't know how low it is
So do I just need to roll my rears and pull?
And is camber kit needed in front and rear?
