Those are 19 inch Giovanna Essen rims. Is there any chance they would fit my car? The tire size is 235/35/19 Falken.
I think the offset will provide a problem tho, 35 i think is the offset.
IS 9 inch way to big for the front?
I really like those rims!

Ive done business with the seller before, and tommrow I am going to test fit one to see for sure.
But do you think 9 inch wide all around will compromise my handleing?
Thanks for the responses.

Tried them on the front wheel today.
It fits PERFECT. No rubbing at ALL, but there is still quite a fender gap
. I guess I will have to lower after all.
Is 235/35/19 safe on the 9 inch wide rim?
Otherwise, im gunna be getting these probably by this weekend. The rim sticks out a bit but htere is no rubbing AT ALL.

Your car wasn't lowered when you had the wheels on right??...if you lower your car it may rub the fender.
Personally I think 235/35/19 is a little bit too skinny for 9”, and I think 9” is a tad too wide for your front. Just my 02 cents.
Good luck

Belive it or not, the 9 inch on the front is just barely sitcking out. It looks perfect. But do I run into any safety issue with having a tire like 235 on a 9 inch wheel? Im not sure if this is unsafe because the tire can roll off the rim?
Help me out!![Smilie](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Otherwise I got them for a steal price!
When I lower I bet it will rub, everything clears now tho

A 235 tire sounds way too narrow for a 9" rim. I think the C7 wheels are 7.5" and they have 225 tires. So I would think that a 235 would be good for an 8" wheel. It sounds like it may be unsafe, especially if you can't get the bead to hold because the tire is too narrow.
