I'm going to assume this is what you meant...


anyways, yes they'll fit with the correct tire sizing. Shoot for 265/35's - that is unless you want more rubber than you can pull off 275's as well. You will need a fender roll.

btw, lower the car first on the coilovers before trying to fit the rims.

19x9.5 +36 tire: 265/30/19

I have oem suspension but may get springs in the future.

May get 245's or 255's, which do you guys suggest?

Will s-techs on bilstein shocks with some neg camber be enough? I dont mind rolling as long as its not very noticeable.

Rolling shouldn't ever be noticeable. 18x9.5 + 30 with 245/40 would just need a roll in the back. +22 needs to be lower than s-tech

Thanks for the replies! no additional camber correct, with 18x9.5+30 with 245/40?

How am I supposed to know? That's pretty nitpicky. I don't know how much camber you have

When i use a tire calculator it shows the 245/35r19 with a .845% diff faster and the 255/35r19 has a .200% diff slower. so wouldnt the 255 be a better choice. i dont me to second guess your judgement just looking for the best tires for my rim

.anything% is tiny and pretty much insignificant. 255/35/19 is tall enough to cause a problem if you lower the car. 245/35/19 is almost the same and won't cause any problem ever (and it's probably a bunch cheaper)
