The cars are very clean and shiny. By the way what product are you using in cleaning this one?

Many DIY Car buffs enjoy using today’s eco-green cleaning products and Freedom Waterless Car Wash makes an entire line of “green” car cleaning products. Have your heard this one?

Looks like rub city in the back. Had I seen this post in December, I would have asked what offset the 19x10.5 wheels were. Now that I see they are +15, I would venture that the 305 tire - although ok for a 10.5" wheel - will rub given the low offset. This picture confirms it:



I'm sorry no one asked you what offset the 10.5 was earlier when you were asking about tires, but you'll need more-than-stock camber to dial that wheel in so it doesn't rub. A good roll will help also. My wife's Z has 305/30s on a 19x10.5 as well at a +28 offset. It doesn't rub, but when I tried it with a 5mm spacer, it did rub, indicating that a 19x10.5 +23 will rub (this is with a Michelin PS2 tire - other tires may be different).

Sorry to hear that. That means at full compression, they'll rub. I prefer a car that doesn't rub no matter what the incline or conditions, hence why I simply would have asked about the offsets, then recommended a smaller tire. No reason to 2^ of camber just to say you have a 305-sized tire, IMO.

Ya true but they aren't going to see much track and most the roads are rather smooth here

So I am lucky and I like how it sits with the 305 but thanks for the advice
