Your new setup does not result in a wheel/tire combo that is appreciable bigger than the standard ones. So the should not rub.

My setup is 8.5x19 ET13 245/35 FRONT, 9.5x19 ET20 275/30 REAR.
Works absolutely perfect.
Can experiencing small rubbing at full compression of the suspension when at the same time turning into a sharp bend. Just like on Nurburgring last week
Be sure to check that you get a offset that works OK.
