Im trying to get a flush set up...help!

Hey guys

Im buying some new rims and i would love to achieve a flush look on my sedan and i would really appreciated your help on tire sizes

19X8.5 +38

19X9.5 +45

I am lowered on coilovers and my car is an X. So diameters have to be nearly the same. Im not into stretching tires but i dont like tall tires either, i prefer wide tires. Sorry if i sound too picky lol

255/35 up front 295/30 in the rear. That's providing you havent corrected the added camber from the drop and you have rolled your rear fenders. With those tire sizes the front is only 0.06" taller than the rear, almost identical.

an even closer setup if you dont want that thick of tires would be 245/35F 285/30R. within 0.02" of eachother.

No camber has been corrected i think im running like -3 or so. Would 295 even fit on a 9.5? It will look a bit bulky right?

I plan to correct it though because -3 is too much

yes a 295 will fit. Go with the 245/285 setup if you're going to correct the camber.

285 on 9.5 is kind bulky.

Given I'm running stretched tires I'm running a 225/35

I say 265/35 rear, 225/30 front.

Then 20mm spacers.
