Looking at a set of 19 inch rims from a mate of mine, just wondering if they will fit my TF Magna, the stud size is 5 x 114.3 of which I know will fit but the tyre sizes are
FRONT:235/35/19
REAR:245/35/19
Just need to know if I will have any issues in reguards to scraping etc.
thanks

well.. i know a 245 tyre JUST fits on a magna on the rear if the tyre is not in the guard.
without knowing the offset the only way to really know is to try them on

Ok, here's some info (legal and tech) for you.
1. Vehicles manufactured on or after 1 January 1973 (ADR 24) are not permitted to
increase or decrease the diameter of the wheel by more than 50 mm than the largest or
smallest wheel listed on the tyre placard.
2. Maximum width of replacement wheels is 26mm wider than the largest optional wheel
recommended by the vehicle manufacturer.
3. When selecting aftermarket wheel rims for a motor vehicle, ensure that the offset of the
rim does not vary by more than 13mm from the original rim fitted by the vehicle
manufacturer. This will ensure that the wheel track is not increased by more than 26mm
beyond the maximum specified by the vehicle manufacturer.
4. Wider rear rims and tyres on a FWD not only looks stupid but also handles like crap.
I'd ring the RTA and your insurance company if I was you before you pay a cent.

They look good on RWDs, it just looks stupid if they're on a car everyone knows is a FWD.

The offset should be written on the inside of the rims.
