Question Will a 19x9 works on 245-35-19

I have tried 235-35-19 on the 19x9" wide rim but the tires is kinda small for the wheels. So I was just wondering if the 245-35-19 works better.

245 will be a better combo with the 9" rim.

yep 245's is a good size for 9's...235 is a little on the small side...my rim edges stick out a bit on both my tires...the front a little more..

My current set up is 18x9 (235/40=+2.2%) and 18x10 (265x35=1.8%)
maybe next time I go 255x35=+.7% and 285x30= -.5%


only problem with 245x35x19...is that is roughly 3.6% larger diameter...but then your car is show...so you might not have to worry so much..for the record 235x35x19 is +2.5%

And that's a awful small profile...wheels look HUGE

Why on earth would you want 19-inch wheels and tires? Do you need to clear 18-inch brake rotors/calipers all around?? Help me understand your application.

Oh, I see, AARotary's FD is a show car. Still, even 14-inch brake rotors are going to look awful small peaking behind 19-inch wheels? Gawd, I hope you're not showing your car with the stock 11.6-inch brake rotors with the 19-inch wheels. Pardon my saying this, but that's a bit Honda-esque :p

Why spend the money on Crooked Willow Composite's Valspeed brake package (fr/rr $6200!) when you could install those cool faux brake rotors the Honda Civic burners are installing on their show-queens Civics. I bet you can get 18-inch faux rotors fr/rr for like $200!!:p

That ranks right up their with the fuax blow-off valves, that the Honda Civic enthusiasts are installing. Everyone knows that only turbo motors have blow-offs, but you'll see the atmospheric powered Civics decked out with all the wild graphics making that "pssshhhhttt!" sound. Apparently there's a remote switch so you don't even have to really be shifting the transmission to make the sound!!:p
