Looks to me like the tires say 275/30-R19
So I'm guessing the wheels are indeed 19".

I don't have exact measurements, but the coils are spun down as far as possible without consistent rubbing (although heavy bumps/turning with multiple passengers do cause the occasional problem). Tires are 215/35/19. I had to go skinny to clear the fenders on 20mm spacers so I could achieve the stance I wanted. (stretch haters, here's you chance).

i have never been a big fan of the stretched tire look but i must say your's looks great. very nicely done. and the stainless accents really make it look clean

Best looking shot of these wheels by far. Looks better than most HREs I've seen. Almost looks like they're 20's. Can you elaborate more on the setup? Are the wheels 8.5 or 9.5 wide? Is the offset 35 or 45? Are the wheels poking past the fender and are you rubbing?
