Hi Guys,

This is what I'm looking to do for my 04 G coupe with 18s.

I want to get a set of 19s without having to roll fenders... I was thinking since 05 and up come with 19 inch Rays anyway I can go with the similar sizing as that. If I'm looking at Rays TE37, what size should I be looking at?

Thanks!

i was thinking about 225/40/19 to keep the diameter close to the 255/35s out back. once the rears go i will go with 245/35 out back. My question is on tire brand. I have found that size anywhere from $150/tire to $275/tire. The KDWs i have don't come in the size i want so i will have to change.

Are generals, hankook, or khumos okay for stretching? here are the choices on tire rack

I want to stay under $200/tire
You made zero mention of what width you're stretching on.

But Generals and hankooks are both trusted to stretch.

IMO roll the fenders, if you don't want to roll them the size you want is 19x9.5 19x10.5 +22 If you roll the fenders you can fit those widths with a +12.

Is the rear a 9 too?

If so, why are you stretching the front and not the rear?

For that mild of a stretch you can pick anything. You won't have an issue with them.

What's your camber at? about -2.5? What's your goal camber?

I'd do the 235/35 and keep the fenders stock. If you don't plan to go super aggressive then try to keep the fenders clean for as long as possible. Unless you know what you're doing with a roller or know somebody that knows what they're doing.

Hmm, it's flusher than I thought it would be for 4+ I'm -4.7 and running 18x11 +20 lol Pulled and sits the same place.

Regardless, go with the 235/35 but you're still going to need a minor pull, the stretch is only going to gain you about 6mm or so.

Every degree of camber is equal to 5mm in offset. So if you go down to -2.5+ you'll have added about 10mm of poke.

Do you think 225/40s up front would be too meaty though? according to the tire size calculator, the sidewall would be 3.5 inches which is the same as the 255s out back.
