I have a staggered set up for my 95 SC400. Got the front tire sizes covered already but I need help with the rears. The rims are 19x8.5 with a +51 offset. I want to go with 265/30/19's but the guy at the tire shop told me I will be scraping the fender with those tires. Is that true?

i do not think it would be a problem...but, 265s on 8.5s...hmmm not sure if the tyre might be too wide

OK. The front rims and 19x8 and the rears are 19x8.5. Would 235/35/19 in the front and 255/35/19 in the back fit? If so, would it look wierd?

Vegas, when you mount the wheels, do you think you could take some pictures of them from a viewpoint of standing behind the car looking at the rear end? If not its no problem.

those would be a better combo..they would look a tad small...no biggie, IMHO

Thank you for the input. Can you think of a better set up? If not then that's what I'll go with.

No problem on the pictures. I plan on taking tons when I get it together.

19x8+9, 235/265
19x8.5+9.5, 245/275

not sure what kind of choices you have though

I want to keep as much rubber between my rim and the street without rubbing. I'd like to keep all the tires the same brand. I'm not laying down much HP right now (curse of the SC400) but I do have a mods in the making right now. Anyway, I have the rims already, love them and don't want to get rid of them. Do you like a 40 series tire would fit or would it rub?

Thanks for all the help.

i should let other SC guys chip in on this one, i am not familiar with 40s/19 on the SC
