Tire size help

OfficialBOLO · 10-21-2012, 09:10 PM

Hey all

I recently picked up a set of OEM 220s and the OEM tires. Unfortunately the fronts are too wide and the rears are too tall/wide even after a fender roll. So I need a new set if tires. I'm thinking of running 235/35/19 front and 255/30/19. Is that a good setup? Also, I am having a hard time finding rears in that size. The 265s on now are rubbing too much, they need to go, but I'm worried there aren't any all season tires that would be sold as a set like that. I was thinking conti dws anyone have opinions? Thanks in advance

not sure what the offset is on 220s but for reference I can tell you to first - roll your rear fenders. I run vmr 19's with hankook ventus v12 235 front on 19x9 and 285's in rear on 19x10 wheels with slightly negative race camber via a corner balanced race/track alignment

It's all about offset / rolled fenders / and if necessary... flared fenders. Just some advice - not sure where you are going with your build.........
