Will these tires fit? All around?

On what wheels?

45 will likely cause rubbing, especially if you're lowered even slightly.
255 will fit fine on the back (assuming stock wheels?) but I wouldn't go that wide in the front. Might want to ask this in the wheel and tire forum to get more help.

The most popular tire sizes for 19s are 265/30 rear and 235/35 front. But it depends on the wheels you're putting them on, of course.

Thats what I originally had on my 19s miro type 111 forgot the offset. I went with 275 when I had to replace the rear and I get slight rubbing when I hit a huge dip with someone in the back. By myself or with a passenger theres no rubbing at all.

even if you get it to not rub, the super thick tire will look dumb on the car.

hey what did you put? i am thinking to put 225 45 front and 255 45 back. i dont care about look i care about comfort and the fact that they rather bounce then slash over small potholes. my only concern is rubbing, not look not speedo

45 series tires are too tall.
