Default People with 255/35/19 tyres up front and lowered

Here are my front wheel specs,

19 x 9
Offset +28

Lowered 1 inch

I want to get 255/35 tyres but want to be sure I won't have any issues.

Do you guys have any problems with the tyres rubbing? Also what brand tyres do you guys have (as I have heard not all tyres are created equal-in terms of width).

Thanks in advance

I have Volk LE37ts 19x8.5 +22 offset with Toyo T1S 255/35/19s up front with no problems. There are a number of people who have gone wider up front as well with 275s.

I have 255/35/20's up front with a 1" drop and a +20 offset with minimal rubbing on large bumps. I don't see yours rubbing with 19's.
