Stock MSport Suspension and no camber or fender modifications. Bone stock bolted right up.

Both rears rub on almost any bump at a moderate speed. The wheels are being switched for Alufelgen CS7s in 1series fitment which should fit better and completely get rid of the rubbing issue. Its only 4mm difference in outside wheel position, but 4mm will make a world of a difference if youre just rubbing on the tire shoulder a tad.
I'm actually surprised you are rubbing, must be the very square edges of the PSS tires?

I am looking at getting the VMR V701 & PSS tires. I have the M Sport suspension as you do.

Do you think the fender rub would be eliminated with 255 at the back? Also, how close are you to the suspension/struts with that setup?
Yes pilot super sports are like big shoes, order a size smaller. I had numerous ppl saying make sure you go 255 in rear fitment with MPSS tires. I ordered: 225/35/19 and 255/30/19 for my forgestars
