Question Will I need any adjustment to run coupe 19's?

I have a 2004 sedan without any sport supension. I'm looking into purchasing a set of coupe 19's. My question is will I have to adjust the camber or can I just bolt the on? Also, I was looking at running 245/40/19 tires, will those fit without any rub?

Thanks

They'll bolt right on with no modification needed. Camber kits are only if you lover the car.

So rubbing shouldn't be an issue.

Only if you drop it a lot and install really wide tires. Stock size tires will be fine, especially on a stock suspension.

I'm not going to drop it. I'm going to leave it stock. I'm looking at 245/40/19 tires all around. Will that size work well or should I go with something else?

I have 245/45/18's on my sedan. I would think the 40 series 245/40/19's will be fine.

that would work or you may want to go with the stagger look? 225/245
8 inch and 8.5 so no issues there

You bring up a valid point that I failed to consider. The 19 inch coupe wheels are 19x8 +30 front and 19x8.5 +33 rear, but according to the tire calculator, the 1/2 inch rim difference is negligible, so you can still run the same size tires all around.
