I finally got my coilovers and wheels in not long ago. I would like to get my wheels put on before i install the coilovers, so i know how much to drop the suspension but I haven't been able to find many people running the same wheel size that I have. Would anyone be able to recommend a tire size for these wheel specs? Front: 19x8 +35 and Rear: 19x9.5 +35 .

I don't want a flashing light on my dash due to the TPMS so, im thinking maybe a 40 tire may be the best.... but I really wanted to go with a 35 if I knew for sure I wouldnt have a flashing light on the dash.

i was thinking maybe 235/40/19 and 255/40/19 ????

I thought you only get the light if you don't have TPMS sensors on your wheels. I had mine transferred from my stock wheels to my aftermarket wheels when I got them installed.

Hmmmm, well that is great news! I would like to go with a 35 sidewall.

What about the width of the tire....Do you think 235/35 and 255/35 would work for those size wheels?
I just worry that I would pay for a set and they wouldn't fit right.

my wheel and tire place told me that putting too small of a tire on could make the sensor go bad. not sure if anyone has had that issue with aftermarket rims/tires. i had a bad sensor on my stocks wheels which caused the light on the dash to come on. the sensors are too expensive for me to justify replacing something that is purely for convenience. i didnt transfer mine over so i just deal with the light.
