I had *slight* rubbing in the rear on large bumps. After inspecting the fender, there was a 4-5 inch area with tire residue. I used the handle of a hammer and just nudged this area up a few milimeters and haven't had a single problem since.

What I really love about these tires is that they weigh the same (28 lbs) as my 275/35/19 Toyo's that were on there before.

I'll snap some more pics later this week.

nice... I think I'm going to run 255/35 fronts and 295/30 rears (PS2's) the next time around... I definitely have room for them on my 10.5" Volks because of my more conservative (+29) offset...

255/35 front. VDC seems somewhat more sensitive to corners and wheelspin, but I turn it off anytime i'm about to drive aggresively anyway.

That is a great set-up both wheels and tires. Although I wished those tires had a more agressive tread pattern they would look better. I have the same wheels but in a different color, and 10mm smaller width and the tires dont seem that stretched on the rims, I really think certain brands run wider than others.
