I thought about posting this in the Wheels and Tires section, but this is sedan specific, so I hope you guys can help me. I am in the process of buying 19" coupe wheels for my 05 6MT sedan. My car is lowered on Eibachs. I know rubbing may be an issue in the rear. I am thinking of putting 225/35 F and 235/35 R. It seems like it would fit with no problems. I might even be able to sidestep the rubbing in the back *crosses fingers*. What do you guys think?

 

Bump one time for the guys who actually have coupe 19s.

 

im running oem tire sizes on my coupe 19's and my g is pretty slammed right now. my fenders are rolled already so my next tire setup will omst likely be a 255/35....

 

Well, yeah with OEM tire size it will definitely rub. But don't you think 235/35/19 in the rear will be good. If I have to roll the fenders then sobeit. But I want to know if these tire sizes fit well. I guess you're the best person to tell me. What do you think?

 

A little small but a decent size.

Many thanks.

 

arent the factory sizes 215/50 17? not 225?

 

oem sizes for coupes wheels are:

225/40 front and 245/40 rear

 

I'm using 235/35/19 front and 255/35/19 rear with 350z springs with no problems
except a bit rougher ride..

 

Non sport = 215-55-17. Sport = 225-50-17

 

heres me slammmmed:

 

Are your fenders rolled?

Chobble, your car looks nice. Not a fan of chrome but at least it gives me a good idea of what mine will look like. I honestly think the 19s look MUCH BETTER on the sedan than coupe.
