rim and tire sizing
 
Sorry, Im trying to figure out this whole rim/tire sizing combo. Im thinking of buying the premium plus rims (5 double spoke) to replace my premium ones. I have tires in the size of 235/60/18. The other rim shows 235/55/19. Would I be able to use my existing tires on the new rim? The overall diameter is the same. Just trying to use the existing tires since they dont have a lot of mileage on them. Any advise is appreciated. Thanks

Sorry but nope. 18" tires vs 19 tires, the inside diameter is 1" different...

So with the stock 19" wheels (S-line wheels in Canada BTW), you got to use 235/55R19 tires.

Go directly to 20"...it will improve the road feel and the look ! 255/45R20

If you want to go with 20" wheels per Chuck2006's suggestion, and are looking for a 5 double spoke design, check out our Blaque Diamond BD-6 as an option:
