planning on ordering some new wheels for my ride. They are 19" wheels, I was wondering has anyone had trouble with these being 2 big, I plan on going with low pro tires like 45's. I know in the rear there shouldnt be a problem, but just thought I would ask people with the same car as me, and If not what about 20"?

You're going to have problems with 45's on 19's.

Nibbe's setup is:
Front 19x8 Back 19x9.5 35 mm offset
215/35r19 in the front
245/30r19 in the rear

Thats as big as you can get on tires without much rubbing

No rub on a 245 with 9.5 wide, 35mm offset without trimming the fenders? Bull.
