Tire size for coupe 19's on sedan?

Im probably posting this in the wrong section but I wanted to ask the sedan owners specifically. I have the coupe OEM 19s and Im getting a good deal on tires. There are for fronts 245/35/19 and for the rears 265/35/19. Im wondering if this will work ok for the sedan. Will there be any rubbing issues? My car is lowered but I already rolled my fenders so thats not a problem. Im wondering if it will rub in the inner walls of the wheel well.

I run 255-35-19s and they fit fine. But they are barely wider (if any)than the oem 245 RE050s. I think the michelin sport pilots run a touch thinner. So at 265, they "might" fit but it will depend on what tire you have. Go to the maker's website and get the actual width and compare 255-35-19 in your tire's maker to a michelin pilot sport in 255-35-19.

Depending on how low you are and how much negative camber you have, 265's may rub. They would on my car.
