That's crazy that 19x9.5's rub when you can fit 20x11's on it.

The biggest problem is that you have 275/35 instead of 275-30 tires
You speedo is wrong and you have too much tire in the wheel well
That with the wrong offset creates rubbing

[/quote]Yeah, but don't they shorten the axle when adding larger and wider wheels. My 540 sport has a slightly narrower tract than a non sport with narrower wheels. Presumably to allow for the wider wheels and tires.
