scobie140 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Just ordered new wheels from rare rims, now about to order tyres just wanted to double check that i've done the sums right. Wheels are going to be 19x9.5 ET20 front and 19x11 ET25 rear, car is lowered on Teins so nothing major, Will 235/35/19 front and 275/35/19 rear be correct? don't want to have TC issues Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mouthwash Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Please tell me these are grids 255 on the front unless you want slight stretch but both would be fine for TC (I think). If you get 235 on the front you'd be better off with 265 to get the same amount of tiny stretch on the tyres. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scobie140 Posted June 18, 2015 Author Share Posted June 18, 2015 (edited) Nope not grids lol, lc818's 235mm is roughly 9 1/4 inch so would only be 1/8 inch either side, surely wouldn't be much of a stretch? Looking at the calculator again 245 might actually be closer to original spec for the front, would it rub though being a bit wider and lowered slightly? Scrub that. stevod that's even closer, don't know how I overlooked that Edited June 18, 2015 by scobie140 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
