UCF10 need tire stretch advise for daily.

greetings guys

I currently have a UCF10 and are wanting some reccomendations as far as rim width and stretching goes.

I have some tires that are 215/35/19 and need a rim width that will give me a decent stretch while maintaining a safe daily application.

something like a 19x9.0 with a 6+ offset. I looked on rimtuck.com as a refrence.

I would also like to use all four tires as well and just space out the rear after coilovers.

what do you guys think?

thanks guys!

depends on what sort of road you have there..i run 215s on 8.5 up front.
go for 225 and you will be fine for daily driving and will give you a reasonable stretch,oh and ofcource depends on what tires your going for, different tires stretch differently.

i think for daily driving, you should be aware of the tire load rating -- you should run some calculations based on the weight of the car and usual occupants to figure out what you need.

215/35 on a 19x9+6 is not a daily stretch bro.

^ ya what he said. i have 235/35 on 9" because i needed it to be daily cause i go over some rough roads and train tracks every day. it is very mild be still obviously stretched. i would say the vast majority of people run 225/35 on 9". i would prefer this as my wheels are a bit sunken, but i needed to do that to allow clearance since i didnt have a lot of stretch with the 235.

id say depending on your daily route etc you could get away with a 225/35 on 9". i am thinking of going down to that next. but it does depend on brand, some stretch more than others. i have Nexen N3000 which do stretch quite a bit for their width.
