You could do a 255/35/19 in the rear to give you some extra tire height, or depending on the tire brand, and as long as your rear wheel offset is 30 or higher, you could run a 265/35/19 rear tire

^^ Sidewall height would be about 10mm taller then the 265's if you decide to run 255/35/19.

225/35 or a 235/35 in the front if you were to match it with the 255/35/19. Proper tire size would be the 255/30, although not every company makes a 30 profile 255 in a 19".

Thanks guys,
So lets say i go with 255/35 or 265/35 for my rears that gives me an extra 10-13mm height which is good, what fronts do i go for to get some extra height over the 235/35 i have at the moment. Last edited by n0s; 07-07-2009 at 04:37 AM.. |

If your car is low, you might want to watch out for rubbing issues with the 265/35.

Would the 255/35/19 work on 9.5'' rim? The OEM 19s are 255/30 on 9''.

I'm running 275/30/19 on sport suspension. A little more sidewall and no rubbing issues at all. If you feel you need that much more sidewall maybe you should move to 18's?
