rear 255 or 275 w/9.5 and drop?
?aggressive? 19x10 wheel size, rear 255 or 275 and drop?
Hey I just picked up both a set of 255/35/19 and 275/35/19 tires from a local place that were oem on an M3 and Jag respectively. The 255's are contisport contacts and the 275's are Potenza re050a run flats. My question is, with my upcoming wheel purchase trying to do 9.5-10" in the rear with a high offset and also lowering with maybe the revised Z setup or hybrid Z/Coupe setup, which rear tire should I use? Thanks all who read/respond
Also- Wheels....fit? rub?
front: 19x8.5 +26
rear: 19x10 +43
I looked at the chart thingy but my measurements showed a little different than that. Any input?

Search around and you will find a lot of threads on this.
Depending on your offset 275's will fit in the rear. You will have a hard time with the 255's in the front (if you were thinking about it) but they might fit if you roll your fenders.

i have coupe wheels and tires which are 9.5 inches wide and im dropped 1.3 front/0.7 rear with oem struts and i get some rubbing with 3+ people in my car...do you all have your fenders rolled? my tires are stock size on rear 245/40/19 i cant imagine having 10" rears with 4 people in the back

I have never seen a sedan fit a 10.5" rear.
