Default Quick Tire stretch help needed

i am getting some vs-xx's 19x9 +34 and 19x10.5 +26 . I have the front and rear fenders rolled and looking to go to low as no gap to as much as a one finger gap.

i know the fronts should be ok with 225/35/19, but on the rear should i run a 245 or 255 /35/19? i would prefer the more meaty tire, but not sure if it would rub.

Thanks!

Go with a 255/265 30 series rear for more "meat". I'll be going the same route after I've worn out my current 245/35/19 Dunlops Direzzas.

I got 225/35 on my 9.5 front & 245/35 on my 10.5 rear. Idk.. 245 looks meaty to me already and its the super cheap Tire brand.
