so why wud these scrub and the 245/35/19 on TRD's wouldn't considering they run a +46.5 offset.....making it closer to the strut

I have a feeling you will be safe. The TRD Aurion back in the day came with 245/35/19 tyres wrapped on 19 x 8 +45 wheels from the factory. They never scrubbed, did they?

[mfpd74]

Yeh TRD had +46.5 offset...

A 1.5mm shift towards the outside of the wheel well coupled with an extra few mm of tyre diameter isnt much.

Oh well i will fit them and see what happens......3mm spacers here i come

[mfpd74]

Yes exactly on the 1.5mm diff....but the TRD was running 245 width on 8in....so i reckon they fit.....unlesd their strut set up is different on the rear

It's hard to say man, I found with my 19x8.5 +35 it's okay, but I had issues with the 19x9.5 +45 on the rear, I was originally running 245/35/19 all round but the Goodyear eagle F1s had quite a square profile, so ended up running 235/35/19 on the rears just so it would clear, in saying that I'm lowered but I've had mates who run stock suspending and have no issues. The brand of tyre can also make slight differences.

Hi guys....just got the wheels fitted today...19 x 8 +45 offset wearing 245/40/19 tyres....with a good 10mm gap between sidewall and strut on the rear.

Thx for ur info
