Yup, another "will I rub" thread...

I'll be purchasing my Privat Netz on Monday and will be doing the following sizes:

19x8 30 offset, 235-35-19 for the front

19x9.5 40 offset, 255-35-19 for the rear

I'm dropped on H&R Race spring (2'')

What do you guys think?

Fo shizzle, I think you will. I have the same springs on my car and when I ran 255-30-20 on my rear on et 41 I was rubbing like a mofo. And on the front thats PRETTY aggresive.

Bro if you live in Miami get 245/30's in the rear and you'll be fine.
Just have to roll your fenders and have a camber kit. Fronts are aggressive because of your drop, but you should be ok, maybe consider a camber kit up front as well just for a few negative points. You should be fine in Miami though.

I don't wanna do 245 cause I don't really like the streched look on the tires, that's why I was shooting for the 255.

Stop being a hatter. I am almost positive that the 235 on the 8 will bubble out from the lip of the wheel and considering how far out to the fender the wheel is going to be sitting already it will probably touch.

Yep, I'm running 9.5 +40 in the rear with 245/35's and no fender rolled with no rubbing problem and I'm slammed. I know a few guys running 19x8 +30 with 235's in the front have no problem yet guys running 245's rub going up driveways.

What do you guys think?
I ALREADY have the Private Netz in the 19x8 with the 30 offset and 245-35-19's and have ZERO rubbing issues. I am not dropped at all but others have also had this in the front and been dropped (about 5 other guys who had the 6sp had this EXACT same wheel with NO problems as far as rub goes on the front).

However, you may well have issues on the rear. You may want to go 255-30-19 on the rear rather than the 35's and that may solve ALL of your issues.
