Default Will a 275 rear tire fit on my car dropped F-sport springs?

I just got my 2009 IS350 and I lowered it with f-sport springs. I also ordered a set of Avant Garde M310 19" wheels 19x8.5 front ET 35 19x9.5 rear. ET 40. I have two brand new tires from my old 335i that I would like to use they are Continental Extremecontact DW 275/30/19. Also what should I run in the front 235/35/19? Main goal here is to not rub.
So any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have two wheels and I have lil bit lower offset then you.

1) 19 x 10 +30 with 275/30/19(rear) - It doesn't rub at all. (My rear tire is tucked)

2) 20 x 10 +37 with 255/35/20(rear) - Clears no problem too. (Also tucked)

For fornt, I have 235/35/19 and 225/35/20. I say go for 235/35/19 on the front~

You should be fine with f-sport springs.

I would go with 235/35 for the fronts. Rears at 275/30 you won't have a problem with that offset.

I'm running the same tire and offset, no rub at all, you'll be perfectly fine with that setup.
