Talking Tire Size Recommendations and Bolt Type
I just picked up some HRE 891r's and I was curious what size tires I should run

Specs:

19x9 ET 35 - 19x10.5 ET37

Ill be lowered with no gap front and rear, so obviously I don't want it to rub

I was thinking 255/40 and 285/35

Also what type of bolts will I need for these HRE's?

Thank for the help guys

Woops I meant 35 and 30 tires

Really 235 up front? Seems thin will the stretch match the front and rear on those sizes?

Ok Im assuming I should get oem Length for the bolts.

The thread I knew but wasn't sure about the length. So that length will be fine with the HRE's?

Ideal wheal width vs tire width IMO is for the rim to be about 85% of the width of the tire. This is IMO the best compromise in sidewall stiffness, rim protection and the tires ability to soak up bumps.

Ahh yea i seen this set on ebay actually, I think im going to get these, 110 for chrome is a good deal for what you get, still trying to decide on black or chrome, but leaning towards black since I have graphite centers
