Tyre size 19’s on E85

[ragtopz4]

Hi, is anyone running 235/30 19 on the front without rubbing? (not lowered). I know 225/35 is ideal but I have access to a pair of P Zero’s in 235/30 at the right price.

Cheers,
Pete

Actually they are 235/35R19. Likely to rub?

On what rim width & offset ?

Yes, apologies, they are 8J x19 ET37
(style 230)

As you point out 225 35 19 is ideal but i don't think upping to 235 35 would cause issues on early E85 unless its been lowered significantly from stock .

Problem is how long before you lower?? it it’s only a matter of time, as e85’s with 19s not lowered look like a jeep and then you’ll have running issues on 235 potentially.

I've done a huge HUUUGE research before deciding my tyres and wheels and 235/35 is safe only:
8,5 and ET 43+
8,0 and ET 37+
Considering you are on Eibachs. E85 is so old every single car need shocks and springs replacement already.
