is 265/30 on a 19x10.5 stretched?

let me re phrase, Will 19x9.5 on 235/35/19 look good with 19x10.5 on 265/30/19????

http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html

went to this website and its only .01% difference.

PLEASE give some feed back on tire/wheels set up..

btw going with hankook v12s, unless better tires are recommended.

THANKS.

Yes it's a stretch. But to get a more similar stretch with the 235/35 on the 9.5, get a 255/35 or 275/30 if you need the extra rubber.

No, those aren't stretched. You don't need or want to stretch tires on stock suspension/height.

For 20x9.5 front and 20x11 rear sitting on 235/35/20 and 275/30/20 would would be a agressive strecth look in offsets with out the wheels sticking out to much

Shark-1.5" all around will close all the gap.

Bunthis- how low are you?

This is why I don't deal with sedans yet. I'm not familiar enough with them yet. LOL.

What's the reasoning behind this?

Eibach g35 coupe springs would drop you 1.5“ all around. I had that on my sedan with 19“s and it was a perfect drop even all around no rubbing. Need a camber kit though

ok i may be in the wrong place for this question but it beats makin a new thread. Im about to order some wheel spacers and was wondering of 20mm will work with oem 19s without having to cut studs down. I dont want to have to cut wheel studs down, so hopefully someone who is using 20mm can tell me.

I have an 04 coupe without brembo's

Could I run xxr 521 18x10 all the way around or do I need to do 18x8.5 in the front.
