MINI with 19"x8" with an offeset of 45 with which tire size
How are you doing? I would like to buy some 19"x8" with an offeset of 45 will fit on a mini cooper? Which size of tires do I need to buy.

Thanks Carlos

215/35/19 Is the smallest 19" tire made..

I guess that those are running 19's can better inform you.

8 inches wide with ET45? Wont that rub on the inside frame? Thats a pretty high offset for such a wide rim.

My wheels are 19x7.5 with an offset of 45. I am also running 25mm spacers in the front and 1.25" spacers in the rear because of my aero kit.

I have 19x7.5, offset 42 on 215/35/19 with no problems. 8 is wide though. Maybe Alex at Tire Rack could help you out. Also, Edge Racing offers 19" packages so they may know.

With that offset, I'd look into spacers... 8 inches is wide on 17s, let alone 19s.. What wheels are you looking at? I'd look for a smaller offset something like 35 maybe?

I ran 19x8s with 20mm spacers and 215/35/19 tires. No rubbing on stock height. I also have the Zeemax widebody kit. Hope that helps.
