Default Selling my wider Falken & Bridgstone tires or trading for smaller sizes

I'm looking to get smaller tires on my 350Z Nismo. I had originally gone one size wider from my OEM tire sizes (went from original fronts 245/40/18 to 255/40/18 and original rears 265/35/19 to 275/35/19). Unfortunately with my new spacers and suspension setup my rear is rubbing on my fender on hard turns or over bad bumps on the road. Fronts ride perfectly fine, my rears are the only problem but if I'm downsizing my rears I also have to downsize my fronts .

Front Tires: Falken FK452
Size: 255/40ZR18 99Y
Tread: 7/32 (70%)
Price: $180 for both.
Or Trade For Size: 245/35/18

Rear Tires: Bridgestone Potenza RE050A
Size: 275/35R19 96W
Tread: 7/32 (70%)
Price: SOLD
Or Trade For Size: 265/30/19

All tires have even wear. No patches, cracks, or flat spots. Very good condition.
As of right now, I'm only selling/trading locally. I'm in the Inland Empire right by the Auto Club Speedway (formerly known as the California Speedway).
Tires being traded must have at least the same amount of tread mine have and must be a decent performance brand/model too. Not interested in trading for "Hercules", "Lionhart", or other weird tire brands.

Just run a smaller spacer or roll the fender.

Good luck with the sale

Don't want to roll the fender. It's a Nismo model so I don't want to do any permanent change to it.. I was thinking of getting smaller spacers but I had just bought the brand new Z1 spacers so that's why I was hoping someone would just trade instead. BUT now I regret not getting different spacers. I got a good deal on some new tires for the size I needed and when I went to remove the rear wheels, the hub centric ring off the junk spacer from the rear driver side was broken off! The other side is not much better, the ring is still on that one but you can see that cracks showing, so I'm sure it will brake off soon. Haven't checked the front spacers yet since the front tires haven't arrived... But yeah now I have to get new spacers anyway..
