chazuk Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Hi Peeps I have just bought a new set of rims for the sup size 19x8.5 FRONT & 19x9.5 REAR Does anyone know what width and profile tyre I should fit to these ? Cheers Chaz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Budz86 Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 The size's I use are 235/40 and 265/35 but they are 18's so not sure if you need a lower profile (although don't think it can go much lower!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 I've got those exact size wheels too and my tyres are. 245/35 19 and 275/30 19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoff Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 My 19s were that size and had 235/35/19 fronts and 265/30/19 rears:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chazuk Posted September 2, 2008 Author Share Posted September 2, 2008 Thanks for the reply peeps, I am not sure about the 30 profile I ve had 35 and that was pretty harsh, still the 30 profile seems alot cheaper :-). Anyone else know any good tyre sites apart from http://www.mytyres.co.uk ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoff Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 (edited) Thanks for the reply peeps, I am not sure about the 30 profile I ve had 35 and that was pretty harsh, still the 30 profile seems alot cheaper :-). Anyone else know any good tyre sites apart from http://www.mytyres.co.uk ? They're cheaper because thats the common profile:) going for 35 on the rears would put out the rolling radius and therefore the speedo I believe. This can be complicated as the prfile and width etc come into play but to keep a reasonably close rolling radius with these width a 30 profile is required:) Edit: try canskill.com also and Ibrar on here:) Edited September 2, 2008 by hoff (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
