Running 265 on a 19x10

Kringer · 05-23-2007, 02:01 AM

Just had a long but informative conversation with Dan at ModCity about
DPE R07s.

They don't make them in a 19x9.5, just 19x10. Is it just me or does a 265 just not look right on a 19x10? Agree/Disagree/Suggestions?

It depends, it leaves a lot of rim showing but some guys like the streched look. I had my offsets made to allow a 275 later on after the 265 wears down.

get kumho spt tires, they're a little wider than the conventional tire...., buteven at that, i dont think itll be that much of a stretched look.

I won't do 265s. You will have a stretched look and you won't have very much rim protection from the tire.

I am running 265/30/19 on a 19x10 rim and it looks fine. Its not very stretched at all!!!.. i love it.

lol 265/30 aint no stretch! if you want stretch go 245/30 or 255/30 like me lol

Usually the recommended tire width is, 1" bigger or smaller from the rim width. Personally, unless you go with something super insane, you really shouldn't have a problem. And I have seen some pretty good stretch on wheels in my time, and they run just fine.

It is actually even recommended to not run an oversized tire on a rim/wheel. If you talk to the right people, they will even tell you that you should have a *slight* stretch in the tire sidewall, for the best performance.
