well with 265 it will be better but it might still be tight. but seriously, just shave teh fender a bit and you will be fine. and put on the 275 instead!

oh and i have 32 in the front, not the back in the back i have 10 and the offset is 43. that's cloes to 9.5 +38

ROMINl - how about if the offset is changed to +38? will it fit without shaving fenders?

I got 19x8.5/9.5 with offsets ET35/ET40 (with 5mm spacer) respectively. I got 245/275 series tires. No rubbing.

I think ET35/ET35 will fit fine.
