for 19s the usual tire size is 235/35 F and 265/30 R ... but it all depends on how low your car is gonna be and if you need fender mods like fender rolling shaving the fender etc...

im running 19s staggered 235/35 and 265/30 .. and no rubbing what so ever..and my car is pretty low but not low enuff

would 225/30/19 be almost the same as the 235/35/19 using 265/30/19 on the rear. cuz one guy on the w203 had 235/35/19 and his ESP light went on.

225/35/19 front and 265/30/19 rear

everyone is using 235/35/19 front and 265/30/19 rear

my question is if I use 225/35/19 will I have problems with the ESP?
