Im also debating between 265 and 275 on 19 x10" ET37 with 1.2" drop. my stock 189s are barely tucked under. i have -2 camber.
i pefer non stretch and no rolling too
tires are either hankook ventus evo 12, or NT05s. both are fairly square. but i suspect falkens would likely work.

Should a 275/30/19 on a 9.5 et 33 lowered on eibach pro work without rubbing, wanted to go 285 but i am know they would rub without a roll.

you will most likely be rubbing with most 275 tires. might be able to get away with some neg camber but if you don't want it to rub, then go with 265s. if otherwise, try with neg cambers with tires that have round sidewalls...

i really wanted to go with a wider tire i currently have 265 do you think if i went ahead and rolled the fenders i could fit a 285 with no neg camber?
thanks

you will need to run neg camber for 285 or wider. i tried various 265s, 275s and also tried 285 and 295. on e92, 295 is impossible even with fender roll. 285 is do-able with fender roll but also you need higher offset than ET33. i ran mine on ET38 with neg cambers for 285s. if you simply want aggresive look, settle with rims that have more aggresive offset and stick with 265s. if you want more traction, running wider tires with neg cambers won't deliver much more traction than running 265s on standard cambers. neg cambers will help on corners a bit but not so much on straight line traction... hope this helps...

I ran 285 25 20 rears with 40et for my Klassen wheels and only had to run -1 camber and no fender roll and the fit was perfect....

thanks for all the help i am going to get 275 and wait to install the rear springs till i get the fenders rolled.

285s on 19s and 20s have very different sidewall heights. there are plenty of people running 285/25/20 on E9x which is proven to work. you can check out my first post but 285s on 19 is another story

I just thought i would add to this thread.

I have 19x10 et 40 with 275's Toyo T1R in the back.
Lowered on H&R Sport, no fender modifications and no rubbing...

do you think 285 would rub with that setup?

[Spoolin335]

I cant say for sure, but it would be very tight. I cant remember what my camber is set to, but i defiantly get camber wear with my setup. 285 and your tires will not last a summer with the amount of camber you will have to run.

thanks for sharing... your rear offset was really high and toyo tires are known to have roundy sidewall. glad it worked out ok for you

i know a person who's running very similar set up 19x10 et41 275s toyo with -1.5 cambers. no rubbing or whatsoever...

[Patsfan123]

How about 245/40/18 on 18x8.5 ET38 all around?

u r fine

[Craig@SupremePower]

nice thread i never noticed it before...

[Robmaster]

i go with 19x9.5 ET25 with Toyo T1R this summer, but dont know which tire size. 265/30/19 or 255/30/19.

i dont want negativ camber. and I'm lowred on Bilstein coils.

[marcel b]

I go 18x9 ET35 square with 255x35 good year F1 Assym. In the front I will need some spacers, not sure how much exactly.... thinking about 10mm per side. I have -2.8 degree camber in front, lowered on KW clubsport.
I will have an similar set with 265x35 Dunlop Direzza 03G for events / nice sunny weather driving :-D These should also fit with 10mm spacers...

i'd stick with 265s if rub, you can try to roll it a bit or give it a slight camber to it...

are you running 255s on 18x9 on front? do you have camber kit?
what's the exact setup info?

[Robmaster]

I dont give any camber. i have slightli rolled fenders.

[hun77777]

i for one ran ET22 with 265s. no issue there with rolled fenders.

I will, I will install this in spring, waiting for my rims to arrive. The KW clubsport includes camberplates, these are fixed to the damper (you cannot buy the KW clubsport without the camberplates, at least not for the E92)
That's how I get to -2.8 degrees. If needed I will go to -3.0 degrees, but as I testfitted a 9x18 with 265 (wide) R compound tire which fitted, 255 should be really no issue.
I will post pics and experience as soon as I have installed both the 265 and the 255 square.
