you should be fine. May have some minor rub issues on the rear but only over sever bumps "or" if you have the rear weighed down with stuff or passengers. I am 275/35/19 (38) but i did minor fender rolling to the rears only. I am on the Tein springs so i am a little lower then you so i think you should be okay. Many are running the same set up lowered with no fender mods. Check out the wheel thread to see some examples

If I had to do it again, would try to find a 235/30/19.

I can *see* the difference in aspect ratio between the front and rear, and it does throw me off a bit. Also, the 30 series front would most likely cause absolutley no rub.

The +35 offset will look nice, although most people are running 8.5 fronts and 9.5 rears.

actually now that i see you are 19 x 9 in the rear you shouldnt have any rub issues. i am 19 x 10 in the rear but i am 38 offset. I know a few members are running 19 x 9.5 w/ 36 offset with no rub in the rear...

IMO stay with the 35 in the front unless you have really good roads! A little extra to protect that rim!! just my opinion

you'll be FINE...I have the same exact setup on tires and springs. I'm running 19x9 rims in the front and 19x10.5 rims in the rear.

If you could fit a 295/30/19 on your rim (min 10"), you would keep the OEM overall tire diameter of 26" (keep stock overall gearing) and have big sneakers on the back!

It's good to know that you don't see any problems. I was concerned the 275 tire might be too wide for 19x9 (same as 235 on 19x8) since most of you use 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 for this set up. I was going to get 225/35/19 and 255/35/19 as recommended for F-sport wheels (same 19x8 and 19x9 wheels), which will keep OEM OD unchaged, but I wanted wider tires and even sidewall look. Thanks for comments.

i know ths is an old thread, but I would like to say thanks. I just recently got FSPORT wheels and were debating about finding the right tire size too.

So wondering who has run these on the f sport wheels on an ISC/ISX50.

I know on the ISF threads people have run 245/35/19 & 275/30/19.
I wonder if these will fit without any rubbing on the ISC/ISX50.

@LEXLEE did you end up going 235/35/19 & 275/30/19 on the f sport wheels?
