    You will need them machined and wrapped in 235/35/19's. It's the only way they will fit. The standard 245/45/19 will not fit. Your super lows will be fine.

    If you can yes. Or if you get them with still some good tread just flog them off and put towards your new tyres. Taking tyres off is inexpensive if that's what you may be thinking.

    yer im still considering my options TBH think it might be to much hassle getting ve rims, might just go for some vy ss or something, then again you cant beat the look of late model rims on older cars
