Wheel and tire size help please
I am dropping my sedan on Eibach Prokits and I am wondering which offsets and tires sizes I will need to not rub.
The wheels im looking at are Axis SuperHiro's in 19" 8.5 front and 9.5 rear.
First, what offset should I be running?
Second, these are the tire package sizes listed on a major website,
Staggered Tire Option 1 :
Front: 245/35R19 Rear:285/35R19
Staggered Tire Option 2 :
Front: 245/35R19 Rear:275/35R19
Staggered Tire Option 3 :
Front: 255/30R19 Rear:285/30R19
Any help is greatly appreciated. I am driving the car more for comfort and not stance. I dont want to rub or scrape through driveways.
Thanks!

offsets:
FRONT: +25 - +35 (aggressive - conservatve)
REAR: +35 - +45 (aggressive - conservative)
Tires:
FRONT: 245/35/19 (245/40/19 is the proper tire size to keep with OEM specs but looks real funny on an 8.5 wide wheel. too much rubber)
REAR: 275/35/19 (proper size to keep with OEM specs but look like too much rubber depending on brand of tire. I would suggest a 10in rear wheel)
FRONT: +25 - +35 (aggressive - conservatve)
REAR: +35 - +45 (aggressive - conservative)

FRONT: 245/35/19 (245/40/19 is the proper tire size to keep with OEM specs but looks real funny on an 8.5 wide wheel. too much rubber)

first off, alex is a good name.
second,, what do you mean when you say too much rubber, do you mean it won't look stretched, but the oposit. or do you mean the sidewall ratio is too high?

Go with 245-40-19 up front. It'll look fine. Check out all the people w/ M45 rims. They're all running 245-40-19s. This will:
1. Match stock diameter so your speedo and odo will not be off.
2. Provide more rim protection.
3. Give a better ride.
4. Provide slightly more ground clearance.
5. Keep the front wheel well gap from looking way too big. As it stands, the front wheel well opening is cut larger than the rears. If you ran 245-35-19s, the front wheel well gap just looks way too big.
IMO, of course.
