Do you have a picture of that setup, because i don't want a stetched setup i live in NY (pot whole heaven) i was thinking of 265/35/19 and some camber. The local shop i deal with told me if i get the camber kit i will wear out my tires faster. He stated the camber kit is to striaghten the wheel not lean it in.

Kyemaul here are the details requested. 255 on a 9.5 is not really considered a stretch. Its not super meaty, but its not stretch either. 245 would look a tiny bit stretched.

Picked up a 255/35 for the rears (per Grant's suggestion...thanks homie!) and those turned out to be the perfect size for the setup I was looking to run.

BIG thanks to SouthBayGSedan, OH6 G35, bigc, zackt69, Gdup35Sedan, and NAT@FFTec for all their help!

Wheel/tire specs:
Front

19 x 8.5 +15 (10mm spacer)
20.4 lbs
Toyo Proxes T1R 245/35/19

Rear
19 x 9.5 +20 (10mm spacer)
20.7 lbs
Nitto Invo 255/35/19

Camber set a -2.75 all around.

Got kicked out of my usual photo shoot spot by my house so I had to scramble and take some quick shots at a new location.

sounds like the guy working on your car is clueless .. camber kit is what makes your tires +/- your camber which is leaning the tire..

camber kit/toe bolts will HELP your tires last longer

^That is definitely more aggressive than 8.5+10. Or maybe you aren't running any negative camber up front. What are you camber settings up front?

Yeah just add camber, roll your fenders very flat, and run a 255/35. You'll be fine.

looking at your rear tire there is a rubbing from the look.

definitely adjust your camber so that your wheel pokes and tire is flush. This will actually bring your front down a touch due to the approach angle of the wheel.

This ^. I have the same ride hight in Marcus' pics and run the exact same rear set up now. My fenders are rolled completely flat and I am 15 clicks away from full stiff. No rubbing at all.

I'm trying to recall if it rubbed when I had that setup. I think it only rubbed ever so slightly with a full trunk, but not enough for me to adjust my camber. That mark on the tire is not a rub mark, just the photo.
