anyone with 285/35/19...

So originally I was going to get 275/35/19, but the tires I want don't have that size, they only offer 285/35/19, just wondering if anyone has run this on stock sport tuned suspension on a 05 coupe without rubbing issues

I already got the rims and need to get tires asap

oh yea the offset in the rears are 19x10.5 +17


thanks guys!

285 with a 10.5+17 has a high likelyhood of rubbing. Roll your fenders to make sure it clears. It somewhat depends on the specific tire brand also

then you take the chance of cutting up your tires. Don't know what else to tell you

I do want to roll/shave my fenders first, but the guy that i'm taking it to recommended that i have everything installed first then roll/shave it

How did you guys roll/shave your fenders? before or after?

you will definitely need to roll or shave fenders with that offset...other than that 285 width on a 10.5 is fine. it won't look as stretched as 275. imo the 285 looks perfect on 10.5. good luck.

I don't have a problem rolling them, just want to confirm if they'll rub at the stock height because I'm planning on going to two different places to get my fenders rolled/shaved and install the tires/rims

i have 275 on 10.5 with +18 offset and i rubbed with just a .5" drop...so you will definitely rub with 285 even at stock height. you're going to need to roll sooner or later so might as well do it now before you get your 285's.

so take it to the place to get your fenders rolled before you install your wheels. Easy as that
