Could I fit a 235/40/19 in the front for oem 19's I know the fenders and stuff will allow it but will the wheel? or will it bubble out? does anyone have any pics? and what about the rear could you fit 255/40/19 in the rear?

The OEM 19-inch wheels are 8 inches wide in front and 8.5 inches wide in back. The range of acceptable rim widths is 8-9.5 inches for a 235/40-19, and 8.5-10 inches for a 255/40-19. In each case the "ideal" rim width is a half inch wider than the OEM rim, but they should accomodate these tires without any problem.

235 wouldnt hurt on the front but i'd prob leave it the way it comes, the car handles great stock, why mess with it?

Simple -- more tires to choose from. The selection of available tires in our OEM size is quite limited.

very true and the prices are cheaper for a 235 40 19 so do the tires bubble out at all in front? does anyone have any pics? please?
