gbclax06 · 04-19-08, 01:05 PM

Size 19 x 7.5

Offset 42

PC.D/H 10-100/114.3

What size/brand/ everything wheels should i get?

i was considering 215/35/19 would those fit the rims

The tire size you chose will fit. The offset might be a little close but nothing a 5mm spacer cant fix!

As far as tires, what are you looking for? Summer performance? or All-Weather?

this is my daily driver ; the rims are mainly for show so i guess all weather would be the way to go? thanks for your input!

I would recommend the Yokohama Avid w4s. Although I just got them, after a short break-in time (was bedding my rotors and pads and broke in the tires at the same time) the level of grip has been quite impressive. Not much of any noise either. Great all weather tire but I haven't really gotten a chance to push them in the wet but they are excellent in the dry.

I have the Yokohama Avid H4s again. This is my second set.
They're really fantastic smooth quiet tires and excellent grip.
Not tons on money which makes this tire really hard to beat.

The parada Spec 2 is a higher performance tire .... much stckier, more expensive and will wear out much faster.

the spec 2's are noisy as hell too. Btw- adding a spacer will lower the offset, therefore making the wheel stick out even more.
