im thinking of going 19 x 9.5 all the way around...is there any rubbing? thanks

[pittsoccer11]

What is the name of those wheels? They look great! Are they hubcentric?

[evilb]

Looks like BBS LM's to me.

[ant7701]

yeah....LMs :drool:

[RAudi Driver]

They are BBS Lm's and they are for sale as I no longer own that car.

[channad]

Damn Ed, those LMs look great! I was thinking about buying them, but I can't

Looks like that other guy sold his tho. So you are the only one selling authentic LMs. Good luck with the sale!

I had 245/35/19 on 19 inch Rial Daytonas, 8.5 inches all around and it was rubbing on the drivers side front tire, but none of the others (at least as far as I could tell). Anyone else have a similar problem? I've heard of having rubbing problems with 245's, what's the best fix? Thanks

I had 245/35/35 tires installed yesterday on Sportec Mono 10s 19x8.5.

Car is lowered at 25.5" on Stasis Coilovers and was rubbing pretty bad on the fronts. I removed the bolts in the fender lining on both front fenders and it seems to be OK now. I will know for sure when I drive around town later today if it is better.

Next step would be to raise the front suspension a little.

My car is not lowered; but I have Sportec 19s. Would 245/35/19 fit w/o rubbering? my car has stock suspension. The original tyres have 235/35 19s.

thanks

Does the tire size also depend on the offset of the wheel?

[dascsh]

The Sportecs have an offset of 35.

I do not think 245/35/19 would rub on stock suspension since it would be higher than the 25.5" my car is at. I just drove around town after removing the bolt in the fender lining and only rubbed once when I hit a speed bump at high speed. Normal bumps and turning had no issues.

If your car is not lowered its not going to rub. Do you guys think I should go with COs if I am running the same setup? I am thinking of getting the H&R springs only but rubbing is what I am concerning about. Anyone running the same tire size 245/35/19 with H&R springs?

[warning]

Here is my car. I have 19x8.5 with 235/35 on front and 19x9.5 with 235/35 on the rear. I first had 275 on the rear but rubbed like crazy. Went down to 245 and it still rubbed. I went to 235 and it was perfect. Now I have 235 all around.

I would love to but I need to drop the car first, therefore I need to see which suspension setting would work the best with 245/35/19 with vellano 19x8.5.
