Best tyre size for 19x9.5 +38

Postby Evozn » Sat Jul 04, 2015 6:49 pm

Simply put it, I can't figure out what size I need to put on the car. I run factory 215 55 17 (Outback). Don't care for rolling dia. Was thinking of the following;

235 40 19 - rare size.
245 35 19 - preferred size but worried about fitment.
235 35 19 - want to hear if 245 works first.

I'm trying to avoid too much stretch as I drive like I'm Chinese, becuase I am Chinese and am afraid of raahing these wheels.

All of those tyres will be stretched, so your rims will be exposed. Don't drive into a gutter, or run 265-275 wide tyres (with rim protectors).
