Default What kinda tires will fit these?

I got some Volks GT-S..

19x 10.5 + 18 on the rear..

can I use 265/35/19 or 275/35/19 ?

Will 265/35/19's fit?? The price difference seems a bit different

You can do 265, but it's going to looked really stretched.

It does all come down to what kind of look and function you want OP.

I'd suggest a 275 or 285 depending on your drop and the offset of the wheels. If you want stretch then you could probably run a 265. If you want fat you could probably fit a 295 or even 305, again depending on your offsets. I run a 275 on an 11" wheel and that is a little stretched.

Sorry for the chitty pic, but they are Toyo T1-S's on the rear, 275/30/20.



I'm personally not big on tire stretching (wheels were already on the car when I purchased it) and have yet to have to replace the rear tires as the camber is pretty close to spec in the rear. When I do, I'll probably be going with a 285 or 295, unfortunately tires in 20" sizes are expensive and I don't have near as many choices. Makes me want to switch to a 18" or 19" wheel/tire combo so I can enjoy some of the better tires out there. HHmmm Volk RE30's... Fortunately my wheels aren't too heavy and weigh the same or less than factory Infinity 19's that some guys run on here, and a lot of aftermarket 19"s for that matter.

I would go with 285/35 with that size and offset. Only thing is with a +18 offset, you will need to roll your fenders with a 285.

Go with 285/35 or 295/30. 275 is the OLD standard.
