TYRES FOR 19 X 8.5 Wheels

[jdw]

Hi What tyres for 19 x 8.5 + 44 wheels on a MK7.5 GTI Im thinking 245/40/19!

I had 235/35/19 on my Mk7 GTI with basically the same wheel specs (i think my offset was 42 instead of 44) and lowered on 034 Motorsport springs which was about a 30mm drop. I had some very light rubbing on the front guard plastic inner liner when going in/out of driveways, but otherwise perfect.

I think if you go with 245 tyres you will rub more.

Is your car lowered?
