245 sounds about right

245/35/19 on 19x11 should work fine. Its not extreme on 19x10.5 at all.

i think 245 will work well.. a NICE stretch :]

im running 235 on 9.5... i thought it would stretch a lot.. but it didnt.. oh well still nice though

Can somebody help me?

I'm ready to purchase my wheel/tires and i'm pretty much set on enkie rpf1's.

i'm thinking of 19x10 +22 in the rear and 18x8.5 +30 up front. Or do you reccommend 19x8.5 + 22mm? Will the rear wheels concave with that offset like a staggered setup?

mine aren't quite that aggressive - but I have the 19" rear, 18" front setup...

9.5" rear, 8" front, +40mm front and +35 rear...

I run fairly wide tires and the rears are rolled - the fronts are within a mm of the fender (not modified) Click on my signature for a larger picture... I run quite a bit of negative camber, -2.1ish front, -2.7 rear, which does give me more clearance in the rear (I could go an inch wider in the rear without issues), but in the front, again, I'd have to actually roll the fenders, which I have not done yet...

all I want to do is run those wheels...why is life so complicated

I would run a 255/35/19 in the rear. It would keep you within factory tire specs and still allow you to clear a rolled fender. Of course, stretching a 245 or narrower would clear your fender as well. But, I always prefer putting the widest tire that will clear the fender.

If I were you, I would run the 19x8.5 +22 on a 235/35/19. The 18" front you have tagged is a bit conservative in offset considering the aggressiveness of the rear wheel that you have picked.

---------------
Since you have chosen a lightweight wheel, I would keep an eye on a lightweight tire as well. Continental and Michelin tend to be the lightest. But, if you do vary to a heavier tire, make certain it is enough of a better performer to justify the jump as you are spending good money on lightweight race-inspired wheels.

I would try and stay within a pound or two of the lightest tire in each class as tire weight influences the rotational inertia of a wheel moreso than wheel weight by virtue of being farther away from the center of rotation. A 1 lb swing in tire weight has as much influence on rotational inertia as a 3 lb swing in wheel weight. Keep that in mind.

Your wheels sit identical to mine(same vs-xx hope your car isnt DPW with gold works) in relation to the fender in the rear (mine are 11.5+29) I run a 285/30 with a rolled fender to the point of pull(I may have mentioned I pulled but it really isnt) So roll flat and put 265/35 on you will be glad you did.

This is 245/35 on 19x10+21(front) so yours is 5mm less aggressive so 235/35 would be good.Good luck

Im running Dunlop Direzza's DZ101 in the rear here's the stretch on the rear 275/30/19 on a 19x10.5 +26mm I will be going back to BFG KDW's though I just like the way they felt. These dunlops were part of a sponsorship deal that I'm trying to get out of lol

hey what do you guru's think about:


18x10+6
18x12+6 ?

newyorksc

fronts, get vertex fenders + stretch tire, easy.
rears, shave, pull stock qp 15mm, stretch, camber, slam, done

youre gonna need more than a 15mm pull for an 18x12 +6

id say 25-30mm pull for the rear with 3-4 deg neg camber

newyorksc

if you can't pull the stock qp more than 15mm, then i'd suggest getting the daizen camber kit and aligning with as much neg. camber plus the -2 degrees, then go with 275 30 18 or 265 30 18 if you can find it and bring the car as low as it can go, you'd probably get away with it on 18x12 +6 but probably not on 19x12+6

buggsc3

I purchased wheels that are 19x8.5 (front) 19x9.5 (rear). Both wheels are +35 all around. I decided to go with the Espelir/Tokico set up.

I know that I'm gonna have to roll and/or shave the fenders. I would just like some input on tire sizes. that wont rub too much but will stil give a nice ride.

thanks
