You normally would but 235/35 in the fronts and 255/35 or 30's in the rear but you could easily run 225/35 for the fronts and 245/35 rear, and depending on tire brand, barely look stretched all while helping out when it comes to not rubbing bearings and fenders

Are you sure you want to do that on 19s.... Or are you telling him to go with 18s?

If he wants to do 18's closest to OEM with that same wheel widths he would have to do 225-35/40 in the fronts and 245-255/40's in the rears |

I don't have 19's but I'm running Front: 235/40/18 Rear: 255/35 r
V12 rubber After having it, I dont recommend staggering your setup, unless you are putting out some major power to the rear wheels, and you are seeking the widest rear tire possible. Even with 235's to 255 the awesome balanced feeling is significantly lessened. If I keep my staggered setup, Ill be running a 245 on the front next time. Probably be FI by then. I have no idea how some people are running the 225's in front with 255 rears :/ |
