Hard to tell from your pics but it doesn't look too bad. Take a look at mine, I had rubbing too and tire was getting sliced. I had the fenders rolled and it completely took care of the problem. no more rubbing. I think you should be ok. try and get a better angle so we can see how much it's sticking out.

Sup Dave,

It's kinda hard to tell from the angles of your pics.. but it seems to me like your 285 tire is still stretched out like a 275 tire would be on a 10.5" rear. Dave Gcoupe05 has 285/35/19 Toyos and his sidewall doesn't look as stretched as those BF G's. I drive Dave's car here and there so I know how it is.. his rear tires will rub his fender too only if he goes through crazy NYC bumps and potholes. You must've been driving pretty fast to get those burns??? Definitely roll your fenders. If you have 285's in the back, you're gonna have to roll them if you lower your car.. if your ride is stock height normally you shouldn't have to but in your case I think your stock springs are more settled than others and that's why you're rubbing every time you go over a big bump on the road.

Yea judging from that pic, your fenders are hitting the sidewall of ur tire.. maybe BF Goodrich's 285's aren't as wide as Toyo's 285's?? I don't know.. What I do know is that BFG's tires are beefy as hell lol. You were definitely drivin hard though from the looks of it.. cuz I know that when Dave's rear tires hit the fender, the fender hits the tread, not the sidewall.

I suggest you get your fender rolled first and see if u still have the problem.. if you do then get a camber kit? I'm putting my 350Z h-techs on soon and might put in my camber kit too. I have 275's though.

Most likely your problem will be solved by rolling your fenders.

lol damn that's pretty straight forward...I think I'd go with the 275, unless you got 4k to dump, then its all good..
