Depends on your drop. If no drop....then no problem at all. If drop 1 inch (Ltuned) or lower....with that offset....and fat tire setup....it will be very close.

The tire you select also maybe an issue. I got Dunlop Direzza....275/30/19....and it has tapered edge on the outer corners...so that helps avoid fender rubbing issues. My other set is Michelin Pilots A/S...and those have square outer edge. The other alternative is to run "stretched" tires....ie: 225/35/19 on the 8.5....and 245/30/19 on the 9.5.

BLK98GS3 did you have 35mm offset on the rears too ?? So i should be okay getting 19x9.5 w 35mm offset and running -275 30 19 or even go 265 30 if possible??

My rear are 9.5" with 35 offset with 1.25-1.5" drop and mine rubbed just a bit on the passenger side. I had to trim about a 1/4" off of the tab and now it's all good.

i agree, if you drop quite a bit, it might rub a little bit in the back, but you can just shave the fender

or you can use 265/30, that will help

I just went to the wheelmax site.... take a look, when the wheel comes up you can put in the car info and then it tells you the wheels wont fit....

Now that I have said, I will also tell you I dont know my wheels from my %$# so you may want to go with what the group says since they seem to be some of the more knowledgable I have run into...

the link, http://www.wheelmax.com/wheelcolors....=Hyper%20Light

Good luck, let us know what happens!

BEWARE of buying from them. I bought there "Speedy Octane" wheels last year and they DO NOT FIT. He mentioned after I bought them that I MAY need to put a 2mm spacer on the fronts so they fit. Well gues what......all 4 wheels didnt fit and I had to put a 5mm spacer on the fronts and 2 mm spacer on the rears cause all 4 wheels were hitting the calipers.

Go to Derrick at D2 and be done with it......don't f#$% with these guys IMO......
