245/35/19 275/35/19

If you want wide tires, the best combo that won't cause you much trouble is 235/35/19 and 275/"30"/19.
245 on the front is too wide
and 275/35 in the rear is too thick of the side wall. The overall rear circumference will be around 6-8% longer than that of factory spec.
In case you bought those tires already, you have to modify your fenders to work with those tires. Heat gun, roll, shave tabs whatever it may take.

Well I put the 275/35 tires on and they fit almost perfectly. Looks amazing. Very Possibly could rub with 5 people in the car going over a bump with **** in the trunk but hasn't rubbed yet. So for the people that said it won't even come close to fitting it does quite nicely. Is def pushing it and wouldn't hurt going with the 30 series but I like extra rubber.

It has lowering springs on it but i am in the process of replacing them with oem springs from the lexus dealership. I have the front springs stock now and am getting the rear springs tomorrow. as of now i have 245/35/19 on the front with 35mm offset IS F replica rims.
I used the heat gun trick and the fronts no longer rub. im mainly concerned about if the back will fit and if it would actually be better for me to have 235 and 255. I just wanted really wide tires

Fitting a 245/35/19 19x8x5 35offset
I ran similar set up last year 245/40/18 which has the same circumference as 245/35/19. If you rub inside, just use heat gun on the plastic liner and you will be fine without the need to roll the fenders.

245/35/19 on 19x8.5 +35 should work in theory. Now it all depends on the tires you plan on getting. Some tires have square shoulders while others more rounded which help to clear the fenders. Michelins tend to run a bit on a wider side compared to other tire makers. If you already rolled fenders and removed the tabs you should be ok. If you still slightly rub in some place just use a heat gun to reshape the plastic liners.

Yeah theres so many people saying different things on this thread lmfao so I don't know who to believe and I did do fender mods the other day to try to make this fit and it seems to be more clearance overall in the front and back

I can see you're slightly rubbing here:
I suggest you drive it for a day, try turning and going up the driveway, speed bumps few times, then take the flashlight and look for fresh tire marks on the inside. Use heat gun and reshape it as needed. My one tire still rubs very slightly once in a while. When I switch to winter tires this winter I'll look inside the fender for fresh tire marks.

So much conflicting information in this thread.
One says 275/35 will work on 19x9.5 (+35) in the rear lowered on springs. Others say no it won't work.
Got wheels coming up to the above spec and want to fit as much rubber in the rear as possible. Hell I'd throw in a 295/30 if the 350's wheel arch allowed it.
But then again we're not driving 350Z's.
Going to bite the bullet and go for 275/30 for the rear. Will have to cut, shave, trim whatever the hell I need to to fit that rubber in there.
