Default Tire up size

Hello,
I have searched this site for a while now in tire up sizing on stock rims but haven't found an exact yes or no if 275/35/19 will fit on the rear with out rubbing or any other issues. Any help would be appreciated. I know people like the 275/30/19, but I am able to get a good price on S0-4's and they don't come in that size. Again thanks for any input.

Thanks. I believe the diameter is 26.6 on the upsize. The only other options are 265/35/19 or stock. We don't have a track in Hawaii so that won't be a factor.

I have the 245/35/19, 285/30/19 Bridgestone S-04 Pole Positions. I luv 'em. No rubbing whatsoever, they are a great improvement over the smaller stock Michelin's in handling and traction. IMHO, you really don't want to put 35 series tires on the back rear of the F. Too many negatives IMHO.

Lou- will the 275/35/19 fit without rubbing? Don't want to roll fenders. Thanks for all the help.

I'm running 275/35r19 on 11 inches wheels without rolling fenders (no rubbing at all).If you go the tires 275/35r19 on stock wheels is no problem.
