New wheels need help with tyres!

[ChocoMilkShark]

Hi all,

I got a Leon facelift 2011 and I just got myself some 19 inch wheels the problem is that I don't know what tyres will fit as the og wheels only go up to 18 inch the tyre size for the 18s are 225/40/r18.

The 19s are
Size - 8jx19h2
Pad - 112/5
Offset - 45
Dc - 70,1

I’m going by Vw golf recommendations but 19x8j wheels would probably be 235/35R19. I’m sure others will correct me if wrong

As the guys above have said thats the normal size tyre on a 19” rim.

Be aware though if the tyres you are replacing have a smaller rolling circumference that your speedo will be out. Worth checking it.
