Hi everyone,
I posted this exact reply in the 19" Wheel thread in hopes to get more/other advice so I hope I don't get flamed for posting here also. I'm expecting some wheels to come in soon and was hoping to get some advice as to which tires I should get. I'm really loving Kirbaaybaay's set up and was hoping to get something similar to his. My car is completely stock with the exception of cusco sway bars. I do plan on getting Stance True Coilovers and camber as well as toe arms, but only after I change out all my bushings. I also have a friend with a fender roller that's gonna help me roll them as soon as he gets back from a car meet down in Austin(?).
Anyways, the wheels specs are 19x10 on the front and 19x11 in the back with +14 offset all around. I've searched pages upon pages upon pages and have been thinking of getting 245/275 40R19 (because Kirbaaybaay has the best rear setup IMO), but am sort of hesitant on the front fitting (thought I'd make it a bit bigger than his). So, maybe 255/285 35R19 or 265/295 35R19. I thought the last two sizes would be more practical because I drive the car about 120 miles a day, and very I drive very aggressive at that. Although if i'm able to clear the front and rear with my suspension mods, then I'll go with 245/275 40R19. But again, if someone knows of someone else with similar specs and has pulled it off, please advice me.
These are the wheels the tires will be going on.
Any tips, advice, questions, answers, criticism, feedback is welcomed.

dont worry jd714, hes a noob when it comes to the fitment game. your size tires and offsets are aggressive when you are lower than most people in this thread. that's basically maxing it if you dont want to rub your tires off. Looks good.
