Not a big fan of 30 series tires although a 285/30/19 should give me a little more sidewall. Has anyone ran 285/30/19 on a 19x9.5 here? Any rubbing issues?
285/35 but rear wheel offset was 32. Would be tricky if you had et20 and lowered

I've read of a few members that run that tire size on their 166's (same size in the rear, 19x9.5, ET 28) without rubbing issues....I was thinking


mrfva is running 285/30 w/ 19x10 ET 20 wheels....no rubbing (stock sport suspension)

OP: are you in an xi or i, those offsets seem to be for an XI as those ET's are pretty high...

Check the offsets!!! Are cars are typically et15-25. Unless you have a Xi, tire size used by most should be 245/35/20 & 275/30/20 or tire rack recommends 245/30/20 & 295/25/20...
