225/40/19 & 235/40/19 OR 235/35/19 & 245/35/19 on 19x9/10??

2000 LS400 stock tire size - 225/60/16

19"x9" & 19"x10" wheels & Megan coilovers

225/40/19 & 235/40/19 - this combo is 2% & 0.9% different from OEM regarding speedo

235/35/19 & 245/35/19 - this combo is 4.3% & 3.3% different from OEM regarding speedo

I see most run the 35 profile tire combo. Should I be concerned about the difference from OEM?
Is there a benefit regarding stretching for either combo?

to fat imo

235/35/19 & 245/35/19 - this combo is 4.3% & 3.3% different from OEM regarding speedo

this would be a slight stretch... good look but 225/235 would be perfecto

That is perfecto!
I'm coming from an AWD STi where keeping within 2% of OEM diameter is crucial to keeping the differentials from blowing up. If there's no reason to be concerned about the speedo difference the fuk it.

Depending on the brand of tires your going with, I would rock a 235/35, 245/35 setup on 9's and 10's. If you really need more stretch than go down a size to 225/35, 235/35.
