What I understand from table 19 inch 8,5" wide offset 35 wheels with
235/35R19 tires should fit V8Q without any doubt ????????
P.S. just how to know will they fit in the front on Brembo calipers ......

Default V8 quattro

I have fit 19's and 20's on my v8 no problem rubbing have h&r with bilstein sports. oz rims 20/8-1/2 with 255/30/20 pilot's looks like no other v8 out there I seen 20's on a v8 but all of them looked ugly. Best is 19's do to the side wall and pot holes if you live in a area with bad streets

Default V8 Quattro

235/35/19 are to small since the car is heavy and the front side wall with the weight will squish down a lot. You will be better of with a 245/35/19 or 255/30 or 35/19

So You want to say that on 19 inch wheels 8,5" wide is better to put
255/35 tires instead of 235/35, and the wheels will fit without any rubbing
100% ?? And will be possible turn the steering wheel full without touching anything ??
