I have 255/40/17 on 17x9 rear rims. The car sits on SLs and I rolled the guards. No scrubbing issues. Your car I believe sits on SSLs at the back, ORSM4L Simon's car had 255s on 19x8 typhoons, same rear springs as yours. Legally I believe 245/35/19 are the widest allowed for 19x8 rim. On an 8in rim , too wide tyres wouldn't be that good, bulging side walls and wouldn't perform as good.

Not the Mark II Typhoons, the top two actually look the best.

The true look of the Silver F6's is this - do you guys still think they look better than Cobra's
Ps No one noticed the Brembos on the Chops Quote:
Dan aka Chopped said the Dark Agents looked sinister I was thinking if i bought the Silver F6's i can always get them repainted charcoal or visa versa but still machined face cobras look sweet......... Decisions - decisions!!!!

Either way will look good but I'd personally choose the Cobra's over the silver F6 wheels. Theres a bit more to them, not so boring.

Wait till the GT skirts and flares are on and the grey mould is colour coded! None the less it still looks monstrous!

Mick if you want different 19's I'd suggest getting Cobra's with the white on the inside. Shaun thinks so too.
But really, don't change anything till your get the GT skirts and flares on and colour code the side mould. Remember the car isn't finished yet, it will all come together when it's done.
