19inch Tyre Fitment

Postby ez30rb » Tue Dec 15, 2009 9:49 pm

Quick Q

Would I have any issues running 235 35 19 on a 19 x 7.5 +45 offset Rim?

Thanks,
Justin

Physically should be okay but 225/35 is the better option, as it doesn't throw the speedo out.

^ That and 235/35 is a bit excessive on 7.5" wide rim - you will get sidwall flex when hard cornering.
A 225/35 as Tangles said would be preferable ;)

225/35/19 should also be significantly cheaper, too, due to being a more popular size.
