I don't want to confuse people, so here are before and after shots.
The before is my rear wheel, what it looks like normally.
The after is my rear wheel under compression, i.e. when I hit a dip or sitting on my uneven driveway.

Not a surprise. You'll have to roll your fender.
I am running 19x10s in the rears, 285/35/19 tires and I rub all the times with 3 passengers in the back. I am getting my fenders rolled as soon as I finalized my coilover suspension decisions.

since we are on the topic of rubbing. any of you guys with 20's getting any rubbing on the splash guard in the front wheel well? I noticed that today as I took the car for a little spin. I pulled in the driveway and was looking over the car and noticed some rub makers on the splash guard. I am runing 245/35/20 on the front and the car is not lowered yet!!!!!!
