you could go with a 245/40/19 tire on all 4 wheels it will fill more of the wheel well and give you a better ride plus if you decide to lower your car you will not rub. I highly recommend it if it's affordable for you.

a 245/40/19 would fit on a +35 offset rim? I don't plan on lowering it anytime soon but in the future I was thinking about it. So you suggest a 40 offset on the rims and tires over a 35? How come?

What they are saying is get the 19x8.5 with the +35 offset. For tires get 245/40/19, it will be a better ride and since you are not lowering it, it will cover up some of the gap. I agree also +35 offset.

I would listen to Chico's recommendation "20x8.5 +35 with 245/35/20 all around" Those wheels should look great.

OOhhhh ok I get it. get +35 rims but +40 tires. makes sense now lol. What if I do decide to lower it in the future if I have that setup? Do you think it would rub? Most likely I won't lower it but just incase

I think you should lower it at least a little. maybe tein h-techs? your car will sit really high on those new wheels, so a little drop would look good IMO.

Guys - I have the Works in 19 x 8.5 +42 offset but its now at +37offset (running 5mm spacer) and I had to change out my stock wheel bolts. If he gets the +35 wont he have to change out the bolts?

no sir, the only reason you changed yours out was because of you running spacers. It shortened the threads on the studs for the lugs. The wheels made at a certian offset doesn't compromise the threads. I'm so tired so this explaination might not make sense. I'll explain tomorrow if it doesnt lol

what do you think of ADR or Stern rims? or should I just stick with the Sevas? I just want a nice safe wheel that I won't have to worry about

Edit: I don't think i'm going to drop it because I don't have enough money if I run into camber issues. I'll just stick with the +35 rim and a +40 tire to fill in some of the wheel well gap
