Default question on tire fitment

I have the linea corse dyna. They came with the car when I bought the car used. It also has coilovers and lowered with less than 1 finger gap all around.

I am running 265/30/19 on the rear. I am wondering if I can run a bigger tire on the rear since I am not rubbing right now. Would it be beneficial if I run 275/30/19 or 275/35/19? Will it cause me to rub?

My wheel size is: 19x10 - +43mm offset

Yes, I'm running 275/30/09 tires with 45 offset on 19x9.5, no rubbing.

275.30.19 will work very well on your car.

I don't suggest a 275.35.19 as it will make the wheel look small due to the bulky tire...that tire is better suited for a bigger car.
