I'm running a 40 series tire on these wheels with no problems yet after hitting several potholes both on the street and freeway. There is room to fit a 45 series tire if you are worried about damage, that should be enough rubber to protect the wheel in harsh conditions.

Try the tire size calculator at Powerdog.com for exact numbers. If you're going from 17's to 19's, I think a 35 series tire on a 19" wheel would be slightly smaller, while a 40 series on a 19" would be a little larger. I went from the 18" stock wheel to the 19" Hyper 5ZR & 40 series tires and ended up with (I think) a +2% change in overall size which was cool with me as it reduced a little fender gap.

That is why I was going crazy about those 19s. But, then I looked around and they were 600 a piece holy god! I don't like the G Games, I am still looking for a nice wheel.
I can answer that for Todd.

Thats because 18" 5Zigen Corpes come two model.

1. 1Piece (Cast Alloy) $280

2. 2 Piece (Forged) I think! $600.

They look identical unless you look very close. One is 1 piece and the other is 2 piece wheel.
