Planning on getting a set of 19s next week on 35 profile tires and was wondering if with that combination I will have more wheel gap then I have now (currently stock) Planning on getting the gruppe-s bumper as well so really don't want to have to lower my car. How will it look at stock height. Anyone have pictures of 19s at stock height?

EDIT: Here are sizes
19x8.5 on 245/35/19 20 offset
19x9.5 on 275/35/19 20 offset

 

The gap will be the same if you buy the proper tires, and will look fine if you get the right offsets.

 

posted tire/wheel/offset sizes in first post

 

Heres mine before and after with 19 inch 285/35 rear...the gap is kinda the same to me anyway

 

what offset are those

 

Oh yea, sorry...f+21 9.5", r+24 10.5 inch. f 245/35/19, r 285/35/19

 

so i could be fine then, I hope.
btw you forgot to scratch out your license, now im gonna come looking for you

jk

thanks for your help though

 

I have the same size/tire setup & off-set (slightly wider rims) and found that the gap actually reduced a little. You should be ok. I think you will probably end up getting the ProKit (or something) to drop it a little...

 

Eibach Pro, they seem pretty affordable to at around $250
Along with lower will those give a rougher more stiff ride?

 

all depends on the tires sir.. all on the tires.

 

Your gap will be increased 2/10 of an inch in the front and 1/10 of an inch in the back with the tires you are running.

 

it will be minimal...235/50 on 17" rim, 275/45 on 18" rim, 295/30 on 19" rim...I have used all 3 of these in the rear and I would have to have 3 pictures taken at the exact same angle of each to even notice the slight difference in gap.

the profile number will make the biggest difference in fender gap

 

Depends what size tires you are comparing them to. You can use the tires sizes to calculate the total height.

what on there tells me how much more of a gap i will have.

 

compare your before to your after and you will see the differences in the calculator
