I know that some have gone as wide as 255 on 17's and I'm currently running 235/35/19 with no problems but i'm wondering if I can go as wide as 245 and avoid any potential rubbing issues keeping in mind that i'm also dropped. What do you guys think?

i know a guy with 255/35/19s on his 2nd gen tl. should work

if you have no camber kit they wont rub but if you install one and align the car to the specs, they will slightly rub on major bumps, id stick with 235's or get 245+ but with a fender roll

whats the width and offset of the wheels, that will make the 245 fit or not

Depends on the width of the wheel..

As others have pointed out, it depends on the offset of your wheels (you didn't provide) as well as the mfg of the tire (some are wider than others even at the same 245 width). I have 245/35-19's Falkin 452's on a +30 offset (Private Netz) and they DO rub but ONLY on SIGNIFICANT bumps. Others have different tires and a similar size and do not rub

The rims are 8.5 but I'm not sure about the offset. To be honest I don't really understand the offset but the rim width is definittely 8.5.

Are you doing 245 all around?

look up the type of wheel and see what is advertised, offset makes the wheel poke out past the fender or tuck in, so no matter what width the wheel is, offset plays an equal role in answering your question.

Yes
