Need HELP - post your tire sizes for 19" wheels!

I need to figure out the best tire fitment for 19" wheels - I just ordered the 19" chrome ACS Type IV's and want to maximize my tire without rubbing.

Oh yeah - and the brand of your tires - whats a good performance brand for 19"s?

235/35 + 265/30 or
245/35 + 275/30

BFG, Yokohama, Kumho, there are a lot of good brands. The particular tire choice is more important I think.

I have:

2 235/35ZR-19 Kumho Ecsta SPT
2 265/30ZR-19 Kumho Ecsta SPT

19x8.5 front
19x9.5 rear

The tire is taller than the stock size so It may not be the best choice. The 235/35 is also taller than stock but not by much. Closest size to stock is 225/35/19 front and 255/30/19 rear.

Width/Offset, drop/camber and rolling of your fenders... are the other pieces of information needed to determine rubbing.

We can all say 265 or 275, but if you get a 19x10 + 10mm that's not right.

+1 width of the wheels and offset are HUGE factors in fitment. If your running a agressive offset you might need a bit of strech tire to make it work.
