    New Wheels

    Got my new wheels today :-) HRE 303M's 19 x 9.5 et 42. Million dollar question; do I go with 245/35/19 or 235/35/19? I'm lowered on KW v3's, about 25 1/4" front fender to ground (I think). 1.3 degrees of negative camber in the front, 1 degree in the rear. Going run 8mm spacers front and rear. I have not rolled my fenders. Will 245's rub? I'd rather run 245's as they have more meat on them but I don't really want to rub either. I've looked through the wheel/tire guide but still am a little unsure.

    Probably going to rub either way on dips. I'm on 19x8.5 +32 with 235s and rub on dips with the fender screw removed. I'm on winter wheels now and plan on rolling to eliminate the rubbing before i put them back on next spring.

    I would go 245. 235 would be pretty stretched on a 9.5inch wheel. Worst case, you could run a smaller spacer in front. I think you're going to have trouble just because that wheel is so wide.

    Thanks guys. Wasn't to keen on going with a 9.5" wide rim but I couldn't pass this deal up. I'm going to try and fit some 245's. Think I'm going to make a tire template to check clearances with just the rim on.
