who's slammed on 19x8.5 +35 in front?

anyone slammed on 19x8.5 +35 rims? I'm running them with 245/35/19 tires and I'm having a lot of issues with the fronts. My front is lowered so I'm tucking the tire. looks like I will rub when I turn.

who has this setup and did you have to roll your fenders? I dont want to have to raise the car up.

thanks

Rolling fenders is a must. You will rub no matter what with 245s if your lowered all the way. Get 225/35/19 and it will decrease the rubbing

Heres a pic of a test fit:



Bought the rims with 2 good 245's on them so I want to match all the tires so I can rotate them when needed. If I roll the fenders can I make the 245's work? or will I need to pull them as well???

thanks!

can tell me what the offset of these is equivalent to with an 8 inch wide rim? I was running oem tl-s rims with 15mm spacer before this (so +30 total) and has minimal rubbing problems. I'm guessing this setup without the spacers is more agressive, but would like to know how much more it sticks out. thanks again. Im a wheel fitment noob.

I'm kinda of a noob too... but if you're asking what the equivalent spacing would be with a 8 inch wide rim, meaing how much more aggressive you can go with the offset right?... the offset would probably be more agressive by 2 or 3mm... so I'd say about +32mm?

I remembered something about every half inch is another 2 or 3mm in either direction. Someone correct me if I'm wrong though.
