Should fit alright, but ideally you would go with 245/35/19. I'm guessing you're trying to fit VE wheels to it?

I'd say more of a snug fit, but I'm not sure as I've never done it before. Hopefully someone who has can chime in here. Keep in mind if you were to go the 40/19 the outer diameter of the tyre would change and alter your speedo slightly. But you will generally save quite a bit if you get them as a deal.

Will be tight fit!

Wont leave you room for future brake upgrades I'd think.

No they won't fit, on the front anyway. They will rub on the front shock tower.

As said in the last 2 posts will fit on rear if you don't lower but the fronts will most probably rub.
I run 245/35x19 and I only have 5mm or less clearance to the front spring platform.
They will fit if you run coilovers but will still rub on the plastic inner guard liners when turning, my tyres do now just.
