My tires don’t go any bigger than 255/40/19, I am 100% devoted to the pirelli. I get about 90k dd miles out of them, good for my driving and extremely quiet.

I think 255/40/19 will fit the 19x9.5 it’s only .5 bigger

love your car!

I 100% don’t turn off traction control and I don’t go into track mode. Lol and I have 3.31 rear end in my manual. I don’t lose traction on wot one bit. Kinda sad I guess but she pulls hard. I’m tuned and everything. So don’t really need better performanxe or wider rubber than the 255. I do 99% highway driving and my fun is flooring it into highway

I have 3.31 as well.. I was running 255/45r18 before... The ride is a little more rough not louder.. I did love the Pirelli as well until I purchased for first time Michelin; their A/S is really much better in the rain which was definitely needed after going with wider tires here in Florida weather ;-). Sounds like your set and can't blame you wanting to use good tires you already have. Can't wait to see your final set up. The silver on grabber blue is very nice color scheme.

Thank you; I love grabber blue! I ran 255 on 8 inch wide so yes they will fit 9.5 :-)

seeing this car makes me want the silver wheels a little more. only thing I have hard time picturing is how it would really look with chrome windows, its not something I can really find/picture as only buillits and a few random weird editions have chrome windows and none of them are rocking the wheels I want lol

Install the wheels with no spacers first and see where they are at, given some of the offsets and backspacing between manufacturers it may not sit like you are thinking.

I will tomorrow for sure. the wheels didnt arrive today either, so tomorrow should be the lucky day.

will post an update. I can also return the spacers via Ebay so if all works out I can do that too.

What lowering springs are you on? are your wheels all +50? I want that fitment on the front, the 305 look too wide especially with the 25mm spacer.

Offset is +52 on all wheels but with 20mm spacers. I don’t have cc plates so camber is at around -1.7* just from lowering the car. Springs are Steeda Ultralite linears, which lower the car about an inch front and back.

I really wanted to try the Indy 500’s but in a 19”, the next widest size they make is a 325/30. So I went with the 285/35’s. Which fit pretty well and are a great diameter for how much I’m lowered. When I get bored of them or wear them out, I’ll be switching to probably a 305/30 Michelin. I really miss their stiffer sidewalls and the sharp turn in
