Default Fitment gods please advice

Rohana RFX11
Tires: Michelin PS A/S 3+

Front:
19x8.5 235/35 19 +35

Rear:
19x9.5 275/30 19 + 40

Lowered on Eibach pro-kit springs.

I'm getting a slight rub on the driver's rear tire. Looks like the side wall is hitting the fender under full compression. What are my options here? Slight fender pull? 255 tires in the rear? I believe Michelin tires have more of a square side wall. Maybe try Continentals?

If you go with a 265/30 non-Michelin tire, you should be good.

Nice rims btw

Thanks for the suggestion. My installer was willing to swap them out for the Michelin PS S4 265/30 19. I drove the car for 30 miles and no more rubbing.

That was awesome of the installer.
Michelin's tend to be a very square tire with beefy sidewalls, which isn't a bad thing unless you have clearance issues.
Just keep an eye on it if you load the vehicle with passengers and cargo.

Looking sharp...love the rims!
You gotta throw up some specs for the forum (size, offset, and tire size)
What nuts you running? I see some red there.

Of course.....the details

Fronts: 19x9 +35 - 235/35/19 Hankook V12

Rears: 19x10.5 +45 - 265/30/19 Hankook V12

Lug Nuts: Work RS Lug Nuts 12x1.50 with locks

Originally was planning running a 275/30 in the rear lowered at RSR Down height but that wasn't the case as the coilovers are still in RD- the rears are as high as they go lol dont ask me why they designed it that way as thats my question as well. But I have a finger gap all around and don't rub on dips or bumps with the current setup. However, the rear tire occasionally touches the lining in the rear when i step on the gas from a dead stop or leaving my driveway but nothing concerning as there are no markings on the tire.

I rubbed with downs and 275-30 Continentals so I went with 265-30. BTW my wheel offset in the rear is +42
