first what offset are you running?
2nd it may only be the rear tabs of the rear bumper?

that would be the problem, not much you can do. you need atleast a +47 for a 19x8 with a 235 preferably a +50 to +55

yeah those diablo rims run low offsets i had the lionharts and i had to take them off cause they were rubbing real bad , you can't even roll your fenders to fix the problem.

It will help if you trim some of the plastic "tab" near the top rear of the wheels well...
I did mine with a dremel and I still have about 2-3mm of clearance with 19x8 +49mm with the suspension bottomoned out.

Wow, that's a low offset. If your wheels aren't sticking out past the fender you can always fix your rubbing issue by rolling the fenders. I have a feeling trimming the Tabs won't work in this case. If they are sticking past the fender, throw them up on ebay.
