Are you lowered? What are the offsets of the wheels? Are your fenders rolled? The reason I ask is because you might get bashed for stretching when you dont need to. Although some may like the look, its main function is to gain clearance.

This would be a mild stretch- 225/35 for the 8.5 and 245/35 for the 9.5 I ran this setup on my old 20's (the rear was 10' though) and it was pretty mild for my daily driver. I wish I could go back to having my tires look like that lol.

Yah, that's pretty mild, but would give a very slight stretch..if you want to call it that.

If you get FK452s, I would even run 235 in the rear, as the 245 I have now is significantly wider than the 255 Dunlop I had previously. The 225/35 is ok in the front, but once again, larger than the 225 Dunlop I had before.

245 FK452 is wider than 255 Dunlop? Sad. I would avoid FK452 if you need clearance.

225/235 on 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 would be fine. 215/225 would also work if you can deal with the small diameter.

I would go with a 225 in the rear and a 215 in the front. My lil bros GS runs a 225 on a 9 and a 235 on a 10 with no problems.
