You should consider reading his sentence again.
You should consider using the search function.

Lol considering the fact that he literally just said that not many people run 19s here makes your argument completely invalid. I did read the first page and i read a lot of the pages here already I'm asking about 19s. This is a forum. AKA An area of which people come to ask questions. Even if its repeated thats the whole point of the forum. If someone has to get criticized every time they ask a question then theres no point of having a forum. You bothered by my comment/ questions i asked? Easy. Click out of the forum. Simple. I can understand how much fun it is to troll someone online but in reality its just a waste of time. I don't see what the problem is. But okay thank you for your superior information master tech.

Not many people run 19's, that is why I am trying to teach you to do your own research.
It's because you've already asked and received answers yet fail to comprehend what you have been told.

18's and 19's fit the same given the same offsets and widths.
What really matters is the diameter/width of the tire.

Say two different tires(18's and 19's) at 265 width and the overall diameter is 25 inches, THEY WILL FIT EXACTLY THE SAME, except for the shape of the sidewall, which is different for ALL TIRES.

Read the specs on a tire on a 18 that is known to fit and compare it to your 19's.
Do your own research because NOT MANY PEOPLE RUN 19's.
And if you read the first page, you would have your answer. I won't spoon feed it to you.
And if you read this last page, you would have your answer. I won't spoon feed it to you.

Guy A with no information insults Guy B with plenty of information, who helped Guy A by saying information is available if Guy A would pull head out of ass and search.

I'm thinking that Swarb, over his 2400 contributions to this forum, has provided exactly the information you (and many others) need. Stop being a dipshit and say thank you.

EDIT: Not to mention, this isn't even the correct fucking thread. we have an entire thread dedicated to fitment questions stealthy named "Will this fit?".. and stickied to the top of this section.

So nice, have to look at it twice, or thrice.

All you had to do was say this exact thing and I would've been happy with it. But you made it seem douchey. I get that I asked a question that has already been answered but atleast some general information like here check this out it might help you out or search this. That would've been great. Thanks for the info you just provided me with though. Much appreciated didn't mean to come off douchey. Just saying. Also I hope you did NOT feel insulted because that's not what I intended to do. Was just simply trying to get a general direction. Thank you.

At no point did I insult swarb. I just stated an opinion of my own. There was no need to insult anyone. All I said would be nice for some general guidance and direction. At the end of the day we are all here for the same purpose. Why make it a maze for others when you can simply give a direction.

With as much time you've spent responding and complaining about the answers you've received, you could've looked where everybody has told you to look and have the answer you were looking for from the get go.

It's not that the answer hasn't been given. It's that you have been given the answers, yet you seem to not be able to acknowledge or comprehened them.

Post meaty tires. Don't post other crap. Thanks.

Back to the content.

Here's my setup:

• TWS T66-F 18x9.5 +45 wheels
• Michelin Pilot Super Sports 265/35/18
• Fortune Auto 510 Coilovers w/ Swift Springs 8k/7k
• SPL Lower Control Arms
• Raceseng CasCam - Caster + Camber Plates With Spring Perch Caster / Camber Plates

Even as high as I am, I still seldom rub a little bit when cornering a little hard.

I haven't trimmed the rear bumper tabs yet or rolled the front fender at all. Does anyone have a picture of what the rear bumper tabs actually are? I know they're "the plastic tabs that aren't part of the fender", but I looked back there and don't see any evidence of rubbing on anything. I'd like to go a teensy bit lower, and want to make sure I have all of my bases covered beforehand. -1.5 front and -1.7 rear camber.

dont wanna dig through so i got one question,
running a 265rear would require changing the lca? or stock would work?

No problem! 265 rear doesn't require changing the LCA, but note that with the stock setup you will not be able to adjust camber.
