Hi all, yesterday i bought a set of rims from Octavia 3 VRS model of rims something like "Extreme' with parameters 7,5J et51 19 inch with tires 225/35/19.

I attach a photo on the seller car, but my is with stock susspension.

Can you advice me when i use them on my car is it possible to fit with tires 225/40/19 or 235/40/19?

You can fit them, but it will increase the rolling radius. As a rough guide, a 225/40R19 will put your speedo something like 3% out, while a 235/40R19 will put it 4.5% out.

Not to be that person, but why buy 19" wheels if you find the ride uncomfortable enough to warrant an increase in sidewall height? Generally, the 19s were for looks, while the 18s were for comfort and, technically, performance.

Hi i`m sharing a 19" Extreme rims with 225/35/19 on stock 1.5 G-tec.

Front looks higher due the lifting for the wheels change minutes before the photo. After short ride front susspension goes low.

I`m thinking to change tires to 225/40/19 to avoid damages due bad roads in my Country.

Wouldn't you be better going down to an 18 or 17 to get more rubber between you and the road surface? I know it looks different, but..
