It will depend on your offset, tyre size and ride height
In NSW you are not allowed to increase rim width by more than 1"
You may impact your insurance cover or even get defected (unlikely?)
Next problem is the tyre size, to keep the same rolling diameter you need 255/30/19
That's an odd size, may be hard to source, will cost a fair bit more than the stock tyres,
they will spray dirt down the size of the car, they almost certainly will rub
225/30/19 will give a 0.7% diameter change - will be stretched on a 9" rim (but is a legal tyre/rim match)
235/35/19 will give a 1.5% diameter change
