Fender rolling question for 19x9.5 +29

I just got my Volk Winnings in 19x9.5 in the rear with a +29 offset and 275/35tires.


I know that this is a super common wheel size, but it looks like the tire would rub the fender if the spring were compressed.


I don't recall anyone talking about rolling their fenders with this wheel/tire size.

Can someone chime in and let me know the deal?

I've got a 19x9.5 +30 wheel with a 285/35/19 which doesn't rub. You have to remember that the suspension doesn't compress straight up, but rather in at an angle so the wheels will clear. Try placing your jack underneath the springseat and jacking it up to clear, but I'm pretty sure you won't rub with that size. People run 10.5 +25 and still don't rub, which is 17mm further out away from the hub.

you'll have plenty of clearance with a 9.5" +29 from the negative camber.

im running +26 10" width 275/35/19 and still have probably 7-8mm to
spare.

IMO you should roll them anyways and get some spacers, those wheels are going to be kinda sucken in. Thats what I plan on doing with mine. Hoping to end up at 9.5 +5 with a 285/35/19

Awesome. Thanks for the replies.

I was thinking that the suspension doesn't ride straight up as well.


The wheels are actually quite flush and not tucked at all. I'll post pics once I get a set of friggin' lugnuts that fit these wheels! The waiting is killing me!

I don't think you've actually seen "flush" wheels yet, because I know from personal experience that 9.5 +29 isn't flush, its at least 10-15mm from being flush. I run a 9.5+30 with a 285/35/19 and its not even close to being flush.
