Look What I Ordered

I just ordered these rims in 19" 8.5 front/9.5 rear blk with chrome lip and also getting the bridgestone pole position all season tires locally. 235/35/19 n 275/30/19. I wanted to get the tires from tire rack but they matched the price. what you guys think

Nice choice, but i'll go with 265 not 275 in the rear.

Congrats on the order! I was just wondering why you don't like BBS' mesh style rims but you have a mesh style. I know they don't look the same, but mesh rims in general have a similiar look.

All good, the polished lip makes a difference no doubt, just the mesh part looks like...mesh. Why do you not like BBS? Not trying to convert you, just curious. I normally run in to people who may not like a certain BBS model, but they usually like BBS the company.

because i wanted something different, too many people get bbs plus so many of their rims been around soo long they don't update too often and if they do its still almost similar to the last one. That's why. I just don't see anything extraordinary in them thats all.

Thumbs up math

Did you try to plug your size in calculator at the top ?
Check if you have the additional clearance that you calculate from it.
