Roll the guards. It depends what your tyre sizes are too. I'll be running the same sized wheels next week.

I'm planing to go with 235/35/19 in the front, It's the rears I don't know about. I wondering will the 245/35/19 in th rear will work. I like the streched look, but i also want a little meat on the tire for a nice ride.

255 and 275 are options, but from what i've been reading, they rub even with a roll.

if you like the stretched tire looks, then I would stretch away. your wheels are properly offset to accomodate a stretched tire on stock fenders.

245/35/19 is probably the perfect tire for the rear to look stretched, maintain factory tire specs, and clear an unrolled fender.

Up front, a 235 is probably going to be close. If it rubs, you can always either dial up the camber at the alignment shop or drop down to a 225.

The "Official Wheel & Tire Fitment Guide for SC300/SC400" wasn't much help for me.

im runnin 19x8.5 and 19x10 and with a +24 offset.

ive rolled all my fenders running 245/35 on front 275/30 on back. the rear tires have an angled side wall which makes it look stretched without it reallyl being stretched.
