Why not just use 245's all around , front and back ?

^ Why driving 245 all around on a RWD?

Alright so I've been reading through most of the threads regarding wheel/tire specs, so just going to ask because I'm tired of reading lol. Just want to know if the following specs are good to go without any fender modifications.

F: 19x8.5 ET 35, 235/35/19
R: 19x9.5 ET 35, 265/30/19

Lowered on Tein-S techs

Now I read that the front fender line may need to be heated and pushed in so not a big deal, main concern are the rears. Thanks for the inputs.

i'm not sure what you're asking.

but if you want to run a square set-up, you'll need to run 235's.

stick with 40-series tires. 35-series will throw off your odo/speedo.

because staggered fitment.

exactly.

my input is...

use the search function in this thread.

9 out of 10 times, it's been answered.

(btw, you get this reply only because you mentioned that you're "tired of reading lol". i'm tired of answering the same questions... lol.)

thanks for reading.

Thank you very much. Can you please specify the width to height ratio as well for the 235's.

Also if I do opt for the 235's does it mean I can just put the 235 rubber over my stock wheels or do I have to change my wheels as well ?

already tried that and for the most part, got what i needed to know, but still left some questions unanswered, but thanks for the help, guess the search continues lol.

help me make this easier by telling me what wheel and tire sizes you're running right now, front and rear.

and then, tell me what you're trying to accomplish.

if you want to know something specific that can't be answered using the search function, try asking it instead of posting something like "i'm tired of reading lol."

okay....could you please tell me if what i asked earlier would be a problem projectdna? thanks.

your proposed tire sizes on those wheel widths = upright sidewalls.

if they were slightly more conservative then you can definitely run those tire sizes without fender mods. problem is, you're right up against that limit.

go down one size (225/35-19 + 255/35-19) to err on the side of not needing fender modifications.

holy crap that was possibly the most detailed request I've seen LOL

its all good, no such thing as overprotecting these cars

agrotech

Loool it just took 5 minutes and a camera. But yeah, would my car go any lower than the one in the link I provided? Or maybe projectdna could help out here? lol

1. s-techs will not make your 2is as low as White350's 2is, as he's on a set coilover height that's most likely lower than s-techs.

2. it's possible to do a roll and a pull for +22, but it's 8mm more aggressive than +30. you'll be able to drive around, but rubbing and clearance issues won't go completely away. you have to remember, the 2is isn't built for high-width, low-offset wheels. the lower you go, the tighter the tolerances get, and the more it takes to get the wheels to fit.

will i recommend it? not particularly, but it's not my money.

I am highly confident that your set up would not have problem in the rear. A member in here running Volk GT-F R9.5 ET36 with 265/30/19 without problem==>Yours is just only one millimeter more aggressive.

I am also running GT-F which has very close spec too yours;
F: 19x8.5 ET 35, 235/35/19
R: 19x9.5 ET 36, 255/35/19
Lowered about 1inch Front and Rear

I had rubbing problem at the back part of the front fender liner during slow turns and backing up.

I had also the rubbing of the fender liner on the area around bumper-to-fender tab (there is a big hump there on the liner if you go look at it you will see) but it happened only when I made super fast extreme turn.

All are minor rubbing and already fixed with just minor heat gun. (Just heat up and push those areas back a few millimeters)

My rear never rubs no matter how hard I turn or run over dips and potholes.

With the setup you proposed, it will not create big rubbing problem until you start to lower your car more than 1.5 inches. And the problem will be most likely in the front.
