Hey guys! Anyone know the correct offset on a TC for a 19 inch wheel with a TRD drop? What is the best tire fit? 225 or 235 35 19? Any problems with rubbing?

 

what brand of wheels were you looking for?

 

not sure on the rims but i know I want 19's.

 

width, offset ect?

 

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 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?

 

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.

 

Try this one...tire size calculator,

For my tC...here are the numbers:

Tire Size Comparison

Specification Sidewall Radius Diameter Circumference Revs/Mile Difference
215/45-17 3.8in 12.3in 24.6in 77.3in 819 0.0%
225/35-19 3.1in 12.6in 25.2in 79.2in 800 2.4%

 

i stand corrected - thanx for the correction .. learn something new everyday
