What offset are you running?
Where is it rubbing? Inside or outside?

I have 10.5 with +23 rear on my G35 lowered on Tein S's and run a 275/35/19.

No rubbing issues.

275's might be cheaper than rolling the fenders.

No, it is most definitely *not,* ever, in anyone's wildest fantasy, cheaper to buy new tires than to roll the fenders.

Just get them rolled, or cut.

I stand corrected.

Heard too many stories on issues with cutting/rolling that equate to much more than the labor/modification cost alone.

you not only have a thinner rear tread, you also have less of a drop.

anyhow, I would suggest getting your fenders rolled, NOT CUT. and get it done by an experienced shop.
