Default 19" Wheel + 265/30/19 + Dropped--> Any Problems?

My new wheel is 19" 9.5" +43 and dropped with Coilover, just got a good deal on tire size 265/30/19.

Don't know any problems to put on rear wheel, mine is RWD.

The drop isn't the issue, with the correct wheel width, offset and tire width. Should be no problem, I'm runnning 275/30/19 in the rear with 19x9.5 45 and have no rubbing.

you will not rub no matter how low you go. i had 275/30/19 on a 19x9.5 +43 and did not rub in the rear at all. you should be good to go.
