if you're going to do 275-35-19 then up front you SHOULD be going for 245-40-19 to even both ends out. But i don't think you're going to rub, but mainly depends on how LOW you are going to lower your car.
I was thinking about this setup but decided not to. The rears shouldn't be too much of a problem, but the front might rub hard when the springs compress and the tire hits the top lining where the wires are located (manaray). other than that, no problem!
edit: i had 245-35-19 and 275-30-19 combo on my 93' SC.

no doubt it would look awesome, but man, if you're buying the rims from your friend then you can't get the "custom" offset that you need, unless it's from the same car or maybe the same company. who knows, but show us some pics if you decide to get them!

that's true henry, but even with the right offset, wouldn't it rub the control arms when you make any sort of turn? or what about when you lower your car? a guy in hawaii had some 19x9.5 in front i believe, i forget, but his tires were stretched JDM style in order to make them fit.

i think 275/30/19 should be ok coz' it's the same as 245/35/19, height wise?
