19x8..what offset & tire size

[whitepony5.0]

Well I have decided to go with 19 x 8 rims, however I am not sure what offset and Tire size would be the best fit for me? I dont want to have to "roll" the fenders or do any mods to get them to work...is a 19x8 a possible option with those factors in play?

so you can easily go with ET 50 - 40 or even 35 with 225/35
i have 8x19 & ET 50 and i am low...so if you are planning on going very low buy ET50,if not ET 40 will look better

I dont plan on going low at all, just a mild drop down the road. 19x8 with a et40 range i will start looking for with some new 225/35/19's should do the trick it sounds like then

215/35/19=low
225/35 et 40-50= rub if you want low.. this is talking from experience.. lol my sidewall was destroyed.

all in all it depends on how slammed you want to be.

so should i go with 215/35/19 if im considering a drop down the road is what your saying?

NO offense but your car is going to look hideous with 19's on and no drop,.. especially being a 06 and not even having the euro suspension I wouldn't do it.

^ Exactly what I was thinking. No expert, but 19" and no drop looks terrible.

 

[lawn mower]

No 19's.

What do you mean by euro suspension?? I plan on lowering it about 1 inch eventually
