Jay 09-24-2004, 04:08 PM width, offset ect? chucksu 09-25-2004, 05:31 AM With a 19" Wheel you want a 215/35R19 as stated by both www.edgeracing.com , www.tirerack.com . www.tire.com shows that a 225/35R19 & 235/35R19 fit :shock: seems a little odd to have a tire that much taller then what the other 2 sites say. As for offset, hard saying. How wide of a rim you going with?

How wide of a rim you going with? all those tires are the same height ... 35 series .... did you mean to say WIDER when you said this seems a little odd to have a tire that much taller then what the other 2 sites say JasonH 09-25-2004, 02:22 PM With a 19" Wheel you want a 215/35R19 as stated by both www.edgeracing.com , www.tirerack.com . www.tire.com shows that a 225/35R19 & 235/35R19 fit :shock: seems a little odd to have a tire that much taller then what the other 2 sites say.

How wide of a rim you going with? all those tires are the same height ... 35 series .... did you mean to say WIDER when you said this seems a little odd to have a tire that much taller then what the other 2 sites say The series number ("profile") is a percentage of the width that makes up the height. On a 215/35 the height of the sidewall is 35% of 215mm = 75.25mm. If you increase the width and keep the same profile the tire heigh increases: 35% of 235mm = 82.25mm. So, those three tires are actually different heights.
