you need to roll your fenders...wheels are too wide.

Is your car lowered? If so, how much? I ran a 285/35/19 on a 10.5 with a +22 offset and that rubbed so I shaved my fenders. On a +30 offset, it may be rubbing against something on the suspension side. Pull the rear wheels and check the rear struts and see if you notice any signs of the tire rubbing. Tire brands can also contribute to tire rubbing.

too wide, someone should have told you to go with 275's if you didnt want to make any fender modifications.

I currently run a 285/35/19 on an 11" wide rear wheel, lowered and I don't rub on anything. SO not sure what your problem is. Sorry.

The cost of a fender rolling tool is I think around $200 but you need a heat gun too. I know you can rent them but maybe ask around and see if there's a good body shop that could do them. Or you could cut them but then you would have to reseal it and paint it.

So if at all possible have them rolled.
