Wheel/Tire Equation

I know I know.. I am asking a lot of questions - but that is why this board is here right?

I am looking at 19x8.5 front ET 35 w/ 235/35/19 tires and 19x9.5 ET 35 rear w/ 265/30/19 tires

Will I be okay fitment wise?

Barely if you don't change the suspension. There's a bolt that attaches the upper A frame arm that is your principal clearance issue. Going for the pimp look huh ?

Unfortunately the wheels I want only come in 19" - I wanted to stick with the 18/19 setup, because I am going to drop her 1.2 in the front so I will have to shave down that bolt.

Have a set of 7mm spacers standing by, especially if you're going to be dropping the car.
