calling out everyone riding on 19s...

i have 215/35-19 tires on right now, i want to go 40 series, and was wondering what size tires most people on this site have, without having much rubbing, etc.

i have 19x7.5 wheels.

and no, i dont want to hear "i'd never get 19s on my civic", etc...

These rims (in the sig) are my 3rd set of 19's and I've always run 215/35's due to not wanting any rubbing issues... With the 35's I only rub in the front when the wheel is completely locked right or left. I also removed the inner fender to lower the front more.. I wouldnt suggest a 40 series tire I think the rubbing would be pretty bad...JMO..

Bending wheels not really.. The first two sets of 19's were fine and I went through some rough stuff with them but I mean as long as you dont hit big *** pot holes full speed you'll be cool..
