Could I run 19s with a coilovers kit

Post by Pazza »

As it says in the title just been offered a set of 19s at a good price but not to sure if I can run them with the coilovers I want, any advice will be well received.

If you have a ruler, you could measure your current wheels are work it out from there. It's simple maths.
There's even a website that does all the calculations for you!
