stock height 07 ss/sc. Putting 19s on it with a 245/35/19 tire, anybody have experience with this size and if so any issues? Am I going to need to roll the fenders?

Thanks

 

this might help you, its a tire size calculator. Overall you may be risking slight rubbing.

Diameter goes from 25.6 to 25.8.. doesnt seem like much to me? My concern is the width, and that calculator didnt help me finding the difference in width. If I do end up rubbing, does someone know where a good (how to: Roll Fenders) thread is?

 

anybody?

 

actually its going from 25.09 to 25.75 soooooo im not sure exactly if it will rub but risky.
i kno 245s dont rub with 18 but im not sure with 19

 

SS/SC's came with 215/45/18's, which are 25.6". 245's should be fine without lowering, but 19's without a drop isn't going to look very good.

 

how not? I dont mind the look of 18s, and these will fill out the wheel well a little more. how can that look worse?

 

Big wheels with no drop is a big no no! That is all.

 

i can almost guarantee that you won't notice the missing fifth of an inch in your wheel well.......

i would agree on the lowering bit.

 

going to put them on now. What do I look for in rubbing? when i turn all the way left and right, but what should I look for in the back? Will this be something I will notice before I go drive it? I was also looking for a "how to" roll fenders, but I had no luck. If someone could tell me or post a link I would really appreciate it. Thanks for the help.

they are on. NO rubbing, its snowing so i cant do any hard driving but so far so good... I'll put pics on the 19' club site. thanks for the help

 

You're running 19's in the snow? I hope you are just test fitting! lol

 

bump for pics

 

Crappy Iphone picture and really late, but better than nothing for now.....

 

oooo hows it ride for ya? any rubbing? as it looks fine from the pic

looks dope

 

Looks good... I think! lol. Aren't those 8" wide? 235's would have been plenty wide. I have 235's on 8.5" wide 19's. Let us know if they rub at all. Your car looks lowered. I thought you were stock height?

 

well you kind of need to know the offset of the wheel to even begin helping...

 

Really late pic but it finally warmed up here..

 

Nice choice for a black car!

 

those the 245 19s? Stock height? Rubbing?

 

Thanks. The inserts are a greyish color, im thinkin of painting it black...

And yes, 245/35/19 stock height 0 rubbing even with a car full of stuff (moved recently and packed the car)
