Tire size for 19x9, 19x10??

Hey how's it going? Been trying to search for some info, but haven't had any luck for the info I'm looking for. A lot of the info that comes up is based on 9.5, and 10.5's.. Would appreciate it if anyone can help out. I just got some wheels 19x9+21, and 19x10+20, and am wondering what tires sizes I should run on them? What I have seen so far is a lot of people running 245/35 & 275/35, but am wondering what are my other options without throwing off the VDC? Dropped on Tein CS, camber kits front and rear, with rear fenders rolled by Shane. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Thanks for the quick reply

What would be some other options? Or would you suggest I just roll with those sizes as stated before? 245&275.. Or should I go with something with more rubber, since Los Angeles is full of pot holes? Any suggestions? Appreciate it! Thanks

Hello everyone. I wanted to get Rota P45Rs on my G. I spoke to Rota and all they have available in 19s are a 19x10 +20 for both front and rear. Would it be acceptable, as far as looks go, and wat tire size should I be running in the front? And would i be able to get the same tire size all around to finally do some tire rotations? lol Thanks!

btw, i have the BC Coils, and have a rear camber kit, but need the front. I am dropped a lil over 1.25".

A question to all Work VS-XX owners

Hi all,

I'm looking to purchase a set of VS-XX's and all the other suspension components for my setup in the late spring/summer time. Right now I'm just getting some research in before I start throwing money around.

I'm looking at the sizing charts for the 19 inch VS-XX's and I see that there are three different disks; A-Disk, O-Disk, R-Disk. What exactly are the differences between the three? And, how does that affect the fitment of wheels with the sizes of F: 19x9.5 +22 R: 19x12 +20?

*Those offsets are just a guess I feel that might have been best, but I'll change later with more research.

Thanks for all your help, and I'll be posting up some more when I have some more questions.

+15 up front and +20 out back will be nice, flush and very functional. You'll have to dial in negative camber and roll your fenders flat in the rear.

Here was my setup when I had smaller spacers, larger tires and wasn't as low as I am now, dropped 2.5" inches on BC Racing coilovers

8.5 +15, 245/35
9.5+ +20, 255/35

Here are a bunch of pics static and rolling so you get an idea of what it will look like.

^^ i think id have to run a 265/40/18 in the rear and 235/45/18 up front so that if i get a flat i can use my spare tire without throwing off the awd..if i did get a flat and the tire sizes were different would it mess up my awd if i only drove like 10miles? id rather run a smaller sidewall like a 265/35/18 and a 235/40/18

^I just realized you said 18s vs 19s. Unless you are going to be slammed 3"+ I wouldn't do 18s, they'll look too small IMO.

I am looking at a set of SSR GT3's for my 6MT coupe with Brembos. Specs are 18x8.5, +30 offset. Will these clear Brembos without spacers? I'm unable to test fit them, due to location.

18x8.5? Damn near stock. Stock is 18x8 +30 up front. Look for a set of OEM 19's. Youre much better off.

They should clear the brakes just fine.
