Tire Size Question

I'm getting a staggered set of VIP Modular VR02's 19x9 Front with a 3" lip and 19x10 Rear with a 4" lip. Will General Exclaim UHP's 235/35Front & 265/30Rear work ok on this setup. Also will be putting on KW V2's.

Both 235/265 and 245/275 will work on those wheels. The wider 245 and 275 might rub if the wheels have an aggresive offset.

Guess I should have also mentioned that they are going on a coupe not a sedan. I have heard more room in the wheel wells for sedans.

Not sure what the offsets will be. I will try to find out, but I think VIP is like iForged as far as they dont like to divulge much info. I will check on monday and let you know, hopefully

i am pretty surre that vip is on the level of iforged so................
if u have the right offsets 245/275 will work fine. example- the wheels that i am gettin r 8.5 by 10 with 35 offset all around on a coupe so i can run 245 275. i am also gettin toyos and they r on the small side so that will help too but u can always roll your fenders just i tiny bit and it will be fine

Yes, it's true but it's a matter of a few mm.

I would go with 245 and 285 like I have

For now I have no rubbing but when I'm going to put my Var II on, it's gonna be rolling a little bit.
