I dont know about you guys but im on coilover with 19x9+35 235-35 front and i dont rub except on hard dips. Im also 24.5inch all around and can do full lock turns no problem. That being said with the weak offset and only being 8.5 width it should not rub.

offset 38 / 19x8.5 in the rear is super conservative. Hell, I'm running a 9.5 inch rear with a 35 offset AND a 265 with NO rubbing. I'm dropped on Megan coils with half a finger gap too.
You may be rubbing in the front but the rear has PLENTY of room back there, especially with an 8.5 38 et

Just got them mounted. I will get pics up in the next week. I was setting up my BCs and without rolling the rear fenders there is a very high possibility you will rub with the 265/30. I rolled the fenders. You can fit pretty much anything if your willing to roll. It wasn't as bad as I thought it was. The front 225/35 is tops you can go, if you go 235 your gonna rub for sure. I have to roll the fronts tomorrow and i'm running the 225.

I dont see why 235/35/19 would rub as I am using 235/40/18 which has the same diameter and it does not rub at all (lowered on Teins) I still got 3/5" space left before it hits the inner fender well.

I just bought a set of non-staggered LFA style wheels (offset 38 / 19x8.5 all arround) and now i am wondering witch tire sizes i have to buy for my IS250.
I am thinking about 235/35/19 for the front and 265/30/19 for the rear.
Does anyone know if this setup will rub?
Thanks

Ow... forgot to mention, my car is lowered on Eibach springs
