quite a few people have 19" wheels here with 245/35 and 275/30. some of them rub and some dont. why is this since they are the same size tyre and wheel?

Wheel offset ( ET ).

Where the rim centerline is placed compared to the wheel hub on the car.

It?s very important to check OEM offset, and then don?t buy new rims with too much ET difference copmpared to the OEM offset.
