Hey guys, I've been lurking around for a bit now and thought I'd introduce myself with my new rim pics. You guys seem to have a good club, thanks for the great info so far. Enjoy!

They're 19x8 TSW Catalunyas wrapped with 245/40/19 Yokohama S.Drives

You planning on dropping it? What's your offset?

I'm not planning on dropping it, I have a rather steep driveway and don't want to scrape the front bumper or be super careful every time. They have a +40 offset.

Good call on that. Question for you-- with your +40 offset would you say your tires are inside the wheel well edge or under it? Basically, how far in or how far out from the top of the wheel well edge does your tire sit? Can't really tell from your photos if they are flush or inside the wheel well.

They're just about perfectly flush with the wheel well edge, maybe slightly under it.

How do you like the S drives. I'm trying to choose tires to wrap my Konig troubles with. It's between the S Drives, Vredreisin Sessanta's or the General Exclaims's going with 235/35/19's on my 19x8 rims with +30 offset.

I like them so far. They handle well and stick to the ground good. They're also really quiet. Haven't driven them in the rain yet, so I can't speak about how they do in wet conditions. For the most part so far I have no complaints. Hope that helps.
