(88Y) XL?

I thought you could use 235/35 R19 on 8" wheels as the ideal tyre width range is 225 to 235.

It'll read 2% less speed than a 225/45 R17 tyre or 1.5% less speed than a 225/40 R18 tyre.
I suppose this is within acceptable limits.

Nice wheels. :smiley:

I like the R36's  :smiley:

On a similar theme, these will be my next wheel: -




OEM 19x8 Sagitta's
 
:evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

The Sagittas look geat, don't see them very often at all, much rarer than the Luganos. There was an Italian company that made replicas of them back along but I've not seen any of those for a while.  :cool:

No, they're a VW wheel. I can see the likeness though.

They need to be 19" to show off! :evil: :grin:

At least the spokes have a bit of a twist on the Saggis which prevents them looking like an ancient chariot wheel. :evil: :evil: :evil:

And before anybody else says it, the Monza Shadows look like stone age ones. :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:
