Slightly turn is not going to rub but if u do full turn , it will rub the inner liners inside , because the width is wider. Other then that u r fine. 245 to be ideal .

Also depends on the tire brand because some tires run big. Currently have 255 35 Michelin pss on 8.5 wheel with a 30mm offset lowered on tein springs
It rub slightly . 245 or 235 would be best

I'm running 255 35 19s on stock rims and they only rub when I'm backing up. I have 275 35 19 on the rear.

Let me add... I have stock suspensions and springs.

You're 26mm stick out compared to mine, very aggressive looks.

That's pretty aggressive. I'm not entirely positive, but you'll probably need some fender work done. 255/35's do fit in the front, as I've seen other members upsize to that, but I'm not sure about the offsets.

255/35/19 AD08's rub every so slightly on full turn in... Strasse custom offsets... but i am on swift springs. i dont think being dropped will matter as it only rubs on full turn in on the liner. Im switching my rears when there done too AD08 in 295/30/19 from my 275 nitto nt05
