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.

no way your gonna fix that rubbing without spending a nice chunk of change. do yourself a favor and sell the wheels or return them if possible.

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.
