Default Will I Rub???

I have Volk GT-S Wheels, +17 and +18 offset, running 275/35ZR19's in the rear (19x10.5) and 255/35ZR19's up front (19x9.5). I love how nice the Tanabe GF210 drop is (1.0 in the front and 1.2 in the rear). Will I have rubbing issues??? I was told If I purchased the 285's in the rear this would cause a problem with lowering, thanks!

275s will not rub
285s will unless you roll rear fenders.

The amount of room you have with 285s will also depend on the tire brand.

The springs, ops, sorry about that, I think I found a seller on here: www.wesellparts.com, he's located in PA and the cheapest out of all the vendors.

Oh ok.... Just checking... I have two shops in FL that could have helped you with tires... And one (maybe) for the springs...

Yeah, I'm trying to find a vendor with the GF210's in stock, but everyone seems to be out, or it ships from Cali.

275 might rub. Mine did, and that was with Toyos which have very rounded shoulders. I had to roll the fenders.
285 will DEFINITELY rub!

Do your tires rub? Or is your front end bottoming out?
