    Any Issues Running 245-35-19 tires on 19x8.5 wheel?

    This may seem like a dumb question, but im asking anyway, any issues with running 245-35-19 tires on a 19x8.5 wheel...currently running 255-35-19...but was thinking of going to a 245 tire.

    Thanks.

    Only issue I would see is rubbing, but if you already have a 255 and aren't than you are good to go.

    You'll have no problem running 245/35 on 19x8.5 wheels.

    thanks guys appreciate the feedback...not dropped, only on sports suspension, so no rubbing issues at all. The tire wont look stretched or anything on the wheel?

    A 245/35 on a 8.5 width wheel will not look stretched at all.

    If you are currently running 255/35 and experience no rubbing, 245/35 will definitely not rub.

    On an 8.5 wheel a 235 isn't even a stretch. 225 is where you will start to get a very slight stretch on an 8.5" wheel.

    245/35R19 can fit from 8" to 9.5" wide wheels safely
