    Yea but being a noob at tires i'm trying to understand. Right now I'v been told I should use 235/35R19... What do you think of that? Wheels are 19x9.5 ET33 and I hope to not change the camber and to lower the car as low as possible

    235/35/19 on a 9.5" rim is a good size if you just want a little stretch. Be sure to pick a tire with a rounded sidewall like the Toyo T1R or Falken FK452.

    Need a rounded side wall to stretch it?

    No but if you're going for a slammed/stanced look, squared-off sidewalls don't look good. Additionally, square sidewalls make it harder to get aggressive wheel fitments to work.

    Do you think I could go skinnier and thinner? I don't want the 19's to bend though. What do you think?

    You certainly can go skinnier. There's plenty of examples on www.tyrestretch.com It's all up to you to decide on the look you are going for.


    Your new wheels:
