hey guys, just got some rims in...what would be the widest I can go for my rears with 19 x 9.5 with a 45+ offset?

my fronts are 19 x 8.5 35+ I figure I should be good with 235/35 ...I was thinking to go for 275/30s for the rear but Ill probably need a shave or roll yes? I think I wanna get something with a bigger sidewall maybe 35's let me know what you guys think

Im gonna drop em soon too

-thanks for the help

That setup will work, but how much work will you be doing to your fenders? 19x10 +20 will stick out from the fenders so you'll need a pull...I'd also recommend a 245/35 rear tire.

i plan on rolling and pulling the front and rear...

225/40/18 on 9.5 the car has no drop right now because had to get an alignment. Now I have to dump it to the ground:

Enjoy

Why didn't you dump it to the ground first then get an alignment? Once you dump it though, its going to be pretty tucked...You would also have been able to slap a fatter tire on that because you wouldn't be that close to the fender...

19x10 +20 all around will fit with just roll and stretch IMO

19x10 +30 with 275 fit fine. even a little sunk with just rolled fenders.

Mongo had 18x10 +24 all around with big tires and rolled fenders.

Tire Size f/r: Kumho Ecsta MX 245/35YR19
Suspension Setup: Eibach Springs, Tokico Struts, and Daizen Sway Bars
Comment On Ride: Handles much better. I noticed a decent difference in handling by losing all that sidewall.
Fender Modifications: None
Any other comments: There isn't very much lip because I did a BBK setup for the wheels which saddens me. But they look great and feel great too. No complaints here.
Picture: Sorry, none yet. My cars getting painted.

If you drop it, you're gonna have to get it alligned again. Everytime you lower it or raise it, you have to allign it.
