YES IT WILL RUB 100% POSITIVE BOTH FRONT AND BACK

im running similar setup but its 18x8.5 18x9.5 225/40 front 255/35 rears on eibachs so i know what im talking about

Gary@TireRack · 03-03-2009, 04:13 PM

Agreed. Rubbing indeed.

I run 19x8.5 +35, 19x9.5 +40 with 225/35/19 F and 255/30/18 R, I have slight rubbage in the rear, i think if i roll my fenders it'll be fine. The fronts have never rubbed. I think with +40 F and + 45 R it should definitely be good, just make sure u run 255/30/19 in the back.

Ichiban is the car lowered at all?

I have the same as ichiban but I am running Kumho SPT and they slightly rub on bumps. I currently have stock suspension. Hope this helps

I clearly said I was on STOCK suspension. I wish I could lower it

ichiban · 03-03-2009, 10:49 PM

im on stock suspension as well. From my point of view, if i lowered the car, i would be able to run more camber in the back, which would help with the rubbing issue. JUst my 2 cents.

ArmieDJ · 03-03-2009, 11:29 PM

Shitty the tire I wanted dont have a 245/30/ or a 225/35 which is what I originally wanted. Stupid 1 series and its offsets!

Most likely, the missing factors are tire brand and suspension setup before an accurate answer can be given.

Eddie_440i · 03-04-2009, 01:50 AM

My setup that will be put on in about 2 weeks

Beyern Mesh

19 8,5 225/35

19 9,5 255/30

Eibach 1,2 drop around

Motorsports_3 · 03-04-2009, 03:23 AM

As said before you will rub. To run tire widths like that on wheels that wide while being lowered while not modifiying your fenders you will prob need et+45 front et+50 rear.
