Difference between 215/225/235?

For a 19x8 wheel with a 43mm offset, what would the difference be between running a 215/35, 225/35, and 235/35 tire?

Yeah, the 1st # is the tire's width, and the 2nd # is the aspect ratio (height) expressed as a percentage of the width. As for what fits, I dont know, but im sure its not hard to find out.

You dont want 215s or 225s on 8" wide wheels. Get 235s or 245s

I also wanted to ask what type of tire size would you guys recommend on stock maxima 17x7. the tire size on the rims right now is a 225/50/17. the rims are going to be used on a 1992 nissan maxima and i was thinking of rep[lacing all the rims with 215/45/17. What do you guys think. thanks in advance.
