If you use H&R's, it will not rub on 19's (depending on offset). I currently have H&R's with 19's and I don't rub in the slightest. Hope that clears up any confusion.

This is with 3 + passengers in my car, right ? <3I googled about offset also watched a tutorial video, but still do not understand. What would be considered as an aggressive offset, and how does that benefit the car?
F 19 x 8.5 / 32 (235 / 35 / 19)
R 19 x 10 / 38 (265 /30 / 19)
Is this similar to what you have? Thanks

Anything in the 20s starts becoming aggressive. Lower the number the further the wheel pokes out. If you're worried about rubbing you could go with 225/35/19 up front because I think that may be your only rubbing issue. Fronts an easy fix if you have some car savy friends that can heat and mold your fender liners. Or you can drive down 4 hours and I'll do it haha
haha

My specs are

R 19 x 10 / 38 (265 /30 / 19)

First, welcome to CL!
My front wheel is similar spec to yours but I'm dropped on coils and tucking just a bit of tires. With 235/35/19, I rubbed on the fender liner till there is a hole near where the fender meets the bumper. With my previous F-Sport spring setup, there was no rubbing whatsoever with the front still being so high on these same wheels and tires. Lower you go, more you gotta consider tire sizes. 225/35/19 would be a better choice if going with H&R springs. Rear setup should be fine.

What do you benefit from a more aggressive offset? Just curious ...
