I would say yes, out of the question. Especially from a safety standpoint. My fronts are 245/35 on 19s. The sidewall is flush with the 9.5s. I can't answer your rubbing question, just the stretched portion. You'll basically be riding on your sidewall if you attempt to stretch a 215/35 on there. Can someone confirm this? We have many tire gurus on the boards that can answer this question better than I can...

okay thank you now what can I do to avoid that? What tire size without camber with avoid it? Then what tire size with alittle bit of camber I know nothing about camber yet but if I HAVE to do it I will do research
265/35 will fair better, BUT that would be extremely stretched on 11s

Do NOT do 215 on 9.5
That said at +15f he shouldnt rub at all with 215. However, i would NOT do that for various safety reason.
I would do 235 at the very least. On stock, you shouldnt rub, but even at 235, its extremely stretch and should be avoided.
Thank you man! What would be a decent stretch that's visible but not dangerous
On 9.5, depending on tires manufacturer, but 235 *should* be safe, assuming you dont hit potholes.
The side wall is what flexes and bend during rough conditions. By stretching it, youre removing parts of that design. Tires werent design to be stretched.
So one pot hole and you can say goodbye to your wheels. Personally, ive ran 275 hankooks on 9.5 and it was perfect for me, i would imagine 245 would appear stretched. VO will be posting pic up ao and you can decide if thats stretched enough for you.

Ok I found an old picture if mine. This is when I ran 235/35 on 9.5f. It was stretched beyond my liking. I didn't have any performance issues, but it was definitely borderline. This was my 2nd set of shoes and I wanted to try a smaller width tire from my previous 245s. Needless to say, I was always worried about damaging the wheels in potholes. I actually did slice a couple of these tires and did some lip damage. For my 3rd set of shoes I went back to 245f 285r.
This is what a 235/r19/35 looks like on a 9.5 wheel.

Okay I'll check the pictures out thanks for the info! so 235/35/19 should be okay but a 245/35/19 on a 9.5 rims is safer and shouldn't rub with stock height +12 offset in the front is that correct ?

Yea but 245 would not look as stretch
Edit: also with 245f and 265/275r the car will handle close to oem

This might be what op is looking for. Im not comfortable with it, but thats up to op.
GTFO I'm 18 and paid for the stuff my self about to be a college student I don't have a lot of money right now have some respect
If you don't have a lot of money then what made you think spending money to downgrade your OEM wheels was a good idea? I hope the roads in your town are made of marshmellows otherwise your Zedd wheels with stretched tires are going to be bent as f*ck within a month or two.

It won't let me open the photo but I will take your word for it would the 245/35/f19 rub with +15 offset ??
