You should definitely be fine, especially on springs.

I want these wheels, Tenzo M-Version 2, but if I want wider than 19x8.5 for the rear my only possible size is 19x10 with an offset of 22. Will this work? And if not could I adapt it to work? I'm hoping to get these just slightly tucked behind the fenders.

18x9.5+30 245/40 is the most aggressive without mods and wont rub. 235/40 to be safest. i ran 18x9.5+30 245/40 on eibach 250's no rub and no mods before.

I have 0 knowlage of wheel & tire fitment, so my question is I asked 18x8.5 +25 with a 255. You suggest 18x9.5+30 245/40, does the tire width or offset have the greater value and will tell if I would rub?

im not 100% if a 255 will rub. but a 9.5+30 is more aggressive than 8.5+25, so if the more aggressive doesnt rub you should be fine. on h&r's you might need to run a 245/40 on the 8.5

tires are too big. 225/35 and 255/35 if your for function>form. you should'nt have any problems rubbing.you might need a slight shave/roll in the rear.

the 255's will cause rubbing in the front? or what is the reason for not being able to run 255's all around?
