    Question Staggered alloys tire sizes?? HALP!!

    Hey guys,

    I've found some wheels that I'm thinking of saving up for and buying the tyres seperately but I'm really unsure of what size tyres I'll need to buy - especially with them being staggered.

    The sizes are as follows:

    19"
    Front: 8.5, 42 offset
    Rear: 9.5, 45 offset

    Also, you reckon these will be ok with coilies?

    Cheers - mucho appreciation!

    I would say, either 215/35/19's up front and 225/35/19's on the year or 225/35/19's all round! But then i dont know much about this stuff. N8 will be the man to speak to.

    Gonna be too pokey. Plus they'll be made out of cheese, which doesn't help.
