235/45!?!?

That's too much!! you need at least 35 series tires.. with 19's 45 series tires is way too big for it, unless you raise you car a bit more.

235/45/19??? Are you sure you don't mean 245/35/19? Those tires would be at least 2.5 inches bigger in diameter. On Nitto's website, they don't have any tires that size in a 19". But, I might be wrong.

Anyways... I'm on 225/35/19's with an Eibach Prokit and have about 200+ pounds in my trunk, and I only rub if I have people sitting in the back. I believe the best thing to do would be to go with a smaller series tire and roll the fenders.

I've never sees a 235/45/19....if that is the size of the tire, you need a 35 series tire for sure!!!

Try rolling the fenders... it should reduce rubbing by 70%.. the rest all depends on your wheel offset, and how much additional weight you plan on putting on the car.

The Comptech spring lower the rear of the car around 1.25"...aren't H&Rs like 2 inches. .75" is a lot of space....I ave a decent sound dytem in my car....2 JL Amps a 10W7 and some custom wood/fiberglass work....I still slightly have that "Comptech Rake".
