Help with squared wheels setup!

Hey guys. Need ur input please! I have 19x8 rims squared NOT staggered but want that staggered look. I’m in the process of ordering tires. Do all the tires have to be the same size? Such as 245/19 all around? Or can I do 275 rear and 245 front? Thinking Michelin pilot sport 4s Thanks! If they HAVE to be same size all around, what spacers do u suggest for that aggressive stance? I want the back to look mean! Haha thanks

You need to watch maximum tyre size on 8” rims....

You can't put a 275 on an 8" rim. MAX you can go is a 255 and even at that, the setup won't look great. The front tire will fit square with a 225 tire and the rear tire will have a bulging look. Meaning it'll look like the tire is too wide for the wheel.

I know it would cost you a few more bucks but if you want a staggered setup, get staggered wheels to go with the staggered tires. You'll be able to get your 275 on the rear and it'll look so much better!
