I'm planning to go 235/35/19 in front and 265/30/19 in the rear. Since you say the front won't rub will the rear have any clearance/rubbing issue? If It does how about 255/30? Thanks

Depends on the offset of the wheels...but more than likely no...

That's what I've been trying to figure out myself...there have been people running those specs but I have not heard anyone rubbing. For instance look at the blue one in the link below. That rear looks perfect.

Those specs would be like running 25mm spacers front and back on your car...

Front





Rear

I didnt get any response over in the tire/wheel section, so i'm hoping someone here may be able to help!
I have a set of 19x9 +35 Fronts and 19x10 +44 Rears coming in. I was thinking i should run a 235/35 and a 275/30. Should I rub with this setup? I don't want to have to do any fender mods and I want to have a bit of lip protection.

Thanks!

Fronts are good for sure, I think you should also be good on the rears...
I barely tap my fender when at freeway speed and hit a big bump, and I have 38 offset on the rear...

good luck!!

Hey guys, I purchased some 19+8.5-35mm wheels--tires 235/35/19 for the front and for the rear 19+9.5-40mm wheels--tires 255/30/19. The wheels are concave. I did'nt even check for fitment, I trusted that the guys knew what they were talking about. Before I open them can anyone confirm that these wheels will fit? The rear looks to big but it could be my imagination. My car is also lowered on RS*R Downs. Please help me!

The 255-30/19 will be small for those rims. It will look stretched. Anyways, others have done it here and it's not as bad!
