ok im lowered with hotchkis 1" springs, bmr LCA's, bmr adj. Panhard, spohn LCA relocation brackets, and stock shocks.
i currently have WS6 wheels with 275/40 kuhmo and 315/35 nitto DR and they're fine but i bought a set of 19x8.5/19x9.5 and have 255/35/19 and 285/35/19 Toyo Proxes T1R tires. Was just wondering if i will have fitment/rubbing/!traction(duh) issues. The rear is my biggest concern because i wanted to stay with a somewhat big tire in the rear. I "WANTED" to go more like a 295 REAR but with the 19" i thought the 285 should be fine overall for looks and performace. Tried the wheels on but havent driven it yet. ANYBODY with 19's chime in with ur 19" experiences THANKS oh and how will it hook with a 285/19 toyo compared to a 315 nitto DR
(stupid question i know) but im "praying" it doesnt spin as bad as pple say since my nittos are already shredded, hopefully having to spin bigger 19" wheels will help me get retain some traction after being forced to go with 285 'street' tires.

When you tried the wheels on how did everything look? Was anything touching? Im in the same boat as you, except Im doing a 295 30 19 with possibly a 10.5 or an 11 inch rim.
Keep me posted and thanks for makin the post, hopefully somebody chimes in.

Here is a picture old T/A w/ 19's on it. The back tires are 275/35 and if I had to go back and do it again I would have got 275/30's so that the profile matched the front a little better. The wheels are 9.5 wide.

cool, thanks for the replies every1, so i should be good with a 285, i wanted 295's to make it look alil wider but 295/19 prices are insane...fuuuuuuk that...lol im jus happy because aside from the wheels/tires i have on now(toyo 255/285), i just got a brand new pair of Michelin 285/35/19 on Ebay for $390 combined shipped and EACH one of those on tirerack costs $411
. So needless to say im good for at least a whilllle. Jus gotta see how bad i spin the Toyo 285/19's, but hopefully i dont- im not pushin that much power. never thought i would enjoy having a bit of turbo lag till now (saves tires $$$) lol guess ill have to roll pple
