You can't choose tyres before you've chosen your wheels.That would be like buying a pair of shoes for a friend when you don't know what size feet they are.
You need to find the wheels you want and then post on the forum and ask if they fit etc.
I'd choose my friend based on the size of his feet
The Vredestein Sessanta tyres come in a million different sizes, I'm sure I'll be able to find some to fit whatever wheels I buy. I understand tyre sizes, it's the wheel sizes that confuse me...
1.) Will 19x8, 19x8.5 and 19.9 wheels all fit on my car without any modifications required?
2.) What effect does the x8, x8.5 and x9 size have on tyres? Will I need to buy different sized tyres depending on those wheel measurements? None of the tyres I've looked at quote that size...
think you're missing my point.
( yes my wheels aren't on, but I did a lot of research on the sizes to fit my arches)
You need to look into offsets not just the width of the wheels.
As you said tyres come in all different sizes. So they are irrelevant right now. You need to find wheels that fit and then go from there with tyre sizes.
I could tell you go buy 245/40/18 tyres... But that could be too small or completely wrong for what ever wheel you choose.
