I'm planning to get some 19" rims with these specs:

Size: 19x7.5

Hub Size: 73mm

Offset: 40mm

What is the best size tires? I am NOT going to drop my car so I want the gap to look as small as possible and not so high.

for a smaller gap i'd go with 245/40/19 but for a PERFECT ratio like the stock 17 inchers i'd go with 235/40/19

please don't get 19x7.5, try getting 19x8.5the tires don't cost much, it doesn't rub and you get better handling
