I was thinking Flat black with a polished lip... Like an MHT or Asanti but I don't really want to spend that much again!

Can I clear 19" and if so 19x?? and what tire can i run?


Thanks

19x8.5 / 19x9.5 with 235/255 you can easily fit. everything above that you need the perfect offset. dont really know how much that is but check with people that have 265 tires in the rear and no rubbing issues without shaved/ rolled fenders
