Any rubbing with those offsets? What about if the car is dropped on coils to remove the wheel gap?

I am no wheel expert, that those are damn aggressive sizes/offsets.

any rubbing lowered to remove gap from tire and fender on coils? not looking to slam or to roll/cut fenders.

Those are pretty agressive, I'm sure you can make the wheels fit but it will take a lot of work and some fender pulling, and those tires are way too big.

Default Help/Advice for wheel fitment

Hello guys. I recently purchased a set of wheels and was rubbing in the front. The front set up is 19x8.5 +53 with 235/35 size tires. It wasn't rubbing on the fenders but in the shock area. I put on a 5mm universal spacer to get rid of the rubbing for now but I don't want to keep that universal spacer on. I was thinking if 225/35 tires would stop the rubbing inside or buy the hub centric spacers to clear it. Thanks!

Would 225/35 tires would still rub? I mean spacers would help clear it but I'm trying to avoid using spacers but it is leaning towards using them.

Your offset are too high, you're going to have to use spacers no matter what. If you go 225/35, on bigger dips you will rub again.

Would 5mm hub centric spacers require extended studs or it will work with stock studs?
