this is how low i want to be by the summer i am hoping i can find someone in the summer to do a pull on my fenders so i can drop lower and i am also waiting for the summer to put my wheels and 2011 F sport bumper on because winter sucks

 

and sorry for crappy cell phone pics i do not have a good camera nor am i a good photographer ahha but i want to be able to tuck my tires in so if you guys can help me out i would really appreciate it

 

Your offset not that aggressive to need a pull. Tire size should of gone with 225-35 up front and 255-30 in the rear. Plus if you wanna be low there the bumper tab and inner liner that needs to be heated in.

 

welcome!! always loved bronze on SFP

 

Nice. I have an AWD and i have wheel specs very similar to yours, however they are not mounted yet. But I've done tons of research and have found out 225/35/19 front and 265/30/19 rear is best. I'm almost positive it will get rid of your rubbing issues.

 

Idk too much about the AWD fitment, but as far as tire sizes, 275s are causing the rubbing. Width and offsets of your wheels are not aggressive at all, so it should be the tires. I'd probably run a 225/35-19 and 245/35-19. Have your fenders rolled flat, cut your fender liner and natural camber should take care of the rest. You'll be able to tuck. :P

I'm on a 19x9.5/10.5 +22 225/35-19, 245/35-19, rears are almost fully tucked (rolled flat and a slight pull), and fronts are slightly tucked (raised to no gap now because of fender damage but rolled flat with slight pull).

Car looks great too! Dump it and DD it.(:

 

is it safe to run 225/35 and 255/30? and how long have you ran this setup for ?

 

i was planning to run 235/35 front and i was gana do that to the back also so that i have all same tire size but the rear would look stretched while the fronts wont be but my rubbing problem is more in the back would this work or would it be ugly to have the rears stretched and not the front or mabe 225/35 all around ? so i can tuck the fronts in more also

 

I wouldn't even call that a stretch. One size is nothing. You still have plenty of rim protection. I wouldn't do 225 all around because then it'd be a serious stretch. You could do it if you really wanted to, but I wouldn't recommend it. The fronts wouldn't even really look stretched, and the rears would look aggressively stretched. Just go with 225/245 or 225/255

 

Lam with the awd your very very limited to certain size tires. Cant just threw out tires size cause they work on the rwd version and yes it safe to run the size i said. Those are close to the stock rolling diameter. Plus If you wanted to run the same tires all around then you shouldnt have gone stagger.

 

thanks laobo, discount tire dropped my wheel and prety much fawked it up so they were giving me a new set of tires and fixing the wheel i hope they will let me change my set up but if not im stuck with the 235/35 and 275/30 but untill then i will go with what you recomended for my next set up hopefully i can then be tucked

 

nice wheels!! i would go with 225/35/19 fronts and 265/30/19 rear. Your rears won't rub at all, your front will rub with the fender tab depending on how low your car is.

 

the best sizes i would recommend with the wheels specs are 225 or 235/35/19 & 255/35/19 or 265/30/19 you shouldnt have any rubbing issues and no need for fender mods.

 

what would be closer to my rolling diameter? 225/35/19 with 255/30/19 or should i play it safe and get 225/35/19 with 265/30/19

 

225/35/19 with 265/30/19 is closer to the same overall diameter. You can check for yourself in a tire calculator. Discount tire shouldnt care, cause these tires are slightly cheaper than the sizes you currently have on.
