It looks like a 4x4... idk

No Harsh feelings just trying to reply to ops post with other solutions.
I don't want to ruin my car's handling with an air suspension lolz

Otherwise the tires stick out too far when looked at the car from the front. *




Rear 15 if 10.5" width. * Stick with 19's. *20's will look too short on the sidewall vs wheel gap.

I would recommend the following setup:

19x9.5 (+22) 265-35-19
19x10.5 (+12) 295-35-19 or 305-35-19
Looks like the 2 above posters have different ideas on what the best offset would be. What do
