Please use this tool:

I think it will depend on your new offset.

Front is the same.

The rear is 23 mm (.9") closer to suspension and is .3" smaller in radius. It won't fill the wheel well as much. 275/35X19 would be a better fit.
It looks to me as though you need spacers in the rear.

Use the tool I posted earlier-it's really easy and fast too.

FYI, Front offset 35 mm and rear is 22 mm (stock).
