I'm thinking get 225/35/19 for front and 245/30/19 rear wit a set up 19x8.5 front and 19x10 rear with offset 35 all around. My friend said i stretch, bend, curve the tires then i can tuck the wheel and get more space. But not sure how it work anyone try this yet?

Yup i'm going to do that

I think I vaguely remember doing 225/35/20 on a 8.5 width and a 245/35/20 on a 9.5 or 10 on my ex car. They are stretched but not "super-stretched" by any means....

i think you want to go with a 235 or 245 series tire the 225 is not wide enough. with anything over the size of 18s. 225 are fine on a littler rim but on that big of a rim they will get bubbles on the side wall fairly easy.

The size is on the small side for a GS because of our big wheel wells.


As far as tucking and getting more space, it is not neccessary to do this to clear fenders on a GS (as long as you have the right offset), so this should not be the reason for picking this set up. If I wanted I could drop my car all the way slammed with my 295/25-20 on 11" wide rims and have no rubbing at all.

The size tire you are picking will be harder to tuck (if that's what you are after). This is because the overall diameter is way smaller than what most people use. The larger diameter the tire, the less drop required to tuck the tire under the fender. You would have to lower your car even more than someone with a 285/30-19, in order to start tucking your tires.


I just did some calculations.

Your 245/30-19 has an overall diameter of 24.787".

The stock GS with 225/55-16 has a diameter of 25.744".

Dude, your almost an inch smaller than stock with that set up !!!

If i go with 235/35/19 or 245/35/19 front and 265/30/19 or 275/30/19 rear i can tuck it easily correct? I have a hard time reading all the offset and tires size please help me out here.

I think gs400kid sizes are were you should be.. 225 is on the skinny side of what we should be using.

The standard recommendation is 245/35-19 F and 275 or 285/30-19 R. Don't even ask about any other combo. This is it for staggard set ups unless you go with a fat tire set up.

I wouldn't do 265/30-19 in back cause the front tire will actually be 1/2 inch larger in diameter than in the back.

with that offset youll be fine with a 235 front and 265 rear. i have way more aggresive offsets. my offsets are in the low 20's all around. (VIP baby!!) you wont rub only because you have a pretty conservative offset plus the more you lower it, the more negative camber youll get to clear the fender. but you might still have to roll the fender.

Antbo, I saw your car over the weekend at Autofashion and it is looking nice. I can't believe you drive around like that. Freddie told me about your new suspension and he looked like he couldn't wait to get started on it. And your tires, they definitely look like rubberbands... VIP style. Looking good, bro.

if you really run that tire setup on the car, at least get something with lower offset in the front. the front sits a lot more inboard than the rear now, and with the stretch tire the front is going to look very funny
