Offset issue or tire size issue?
Need some assistance here.
Attached are pics of where my tire rubs my inner fender lining.
I'm currently running 245/40/19 all around.
Is this happening because my offset is too high (+37 on a 19x9) or is it because my tire is sheerly too large?

the diameter of your tire is too large...just cut out the piece of the fender liner that it rubs against...easy fix...

You should be running a 35 series tire for a 19.

I agree. Do one or the other, but I would personally run the 35 series tire.

I decided to order new tires for the fronts for better fitment
225/35/19 General Exclaim UHP, going onto 19x9 +37 fronts for slight stretch and more fender clearance (front and back, not width)
I am going to get some spacers soon to get some wheel poke.

The only problem with running a smaller tire is that its gonna increase your wheel gap.

I got 225/35/19 General Exclaim UHP's for my front tires. Have no complaints about them thusfar.
There really isn't any wheel gap to worry about anyways. Keep in mind I drive in NJ/NY with a ton of potholes.
Pics tomorrow, I need spacers now :P

I have the exact same tire 225/35 R19 and so far these tires are great. General is the same company as Continental.
