255/35/18 In the rear?

Will 255/35/18 tires mounted on stock wheels with stock suspension cause rubbing in the rear? I tried searching many forums but didn't find concrete answers as many people are implementing wider tires on aftermarket rims with varying offsets. Thanks in advance

I have that exact situation and plenty of clearance. OBTW, I have 261M on Conti DWS. My other wheels are CS7s on Goodyear F1 Assymetrics in same size and plenty of clearance.

Should be no issues. I run Dunlop Star Specs which tend to run a little wide and have no problems even with the car lowered on KW V3s.

Thanks everyone! Now, I'm thinking about Conti DW. Opinions regarding DW vs. DWS?
Cheers

I've had the DWS's on my car for about 15,000 miles, and so far I've been very happy with them, including their winter performance.
