No rubbing at all! Rears are half a finger Gap and the front is about one and a half.

I haven't personally on the RSR yet but my buddy had and he had no problems with them.

Thanks my dude! Took me forever to find these wheels. I wish Rotiform didn't discontinue them.

I am looking to get Niche Targa wheels F=19x8.5 +35 R=19x9.5 +35, lowered on RSR downs. Im a bit iffy about the offset in the rear. Tires i am thinking to run F= 235/35 R= 265/30. Can this setup work?

Does anyone know if I will have rubbing issues with the following set-up?
RSR Downs
Front: 19 X 8.5 +35 (225-35ZR19)
Rear: 19 X 9.5 +35 (265-30ZR19)
Niche Verona & Toyo Proxes

Thanks!!
Did you actually go ahead with this setup? If you did, did you have any issue with rubbing?

Rear might be an issue. Maybe a 255/30/19 and a little bit of praying...if you're religious lol

So do you suggest i go with RSR half downs with the wheel setup I want? the reason i ask is because that wheel unfortunately is only made with the rear in +35 offset. I know the front fitment will work.

Running works cr kais candy red, 19x8.5 +35 in the front and 19x9.5 +38 in the rear wrapped with yokohama advan sports 235/35/19 and 265/30/19. A little rubbing in the front when doing a full lock and wondering if I dropped the car with rsr super downs would there be any rubbing issues?

With the 19x9.5 +35, it's right at that borderline where the right rim and tire will clear, and the wrong rim and tire will rub. Specs aside, sometimes it just comes down to the final design of the rim and the tread width of the tire.
If you already have the Downs installed, then I say give it a try first and see what happens. Even if it rubs, it should be minimal, so it will give you a chance to explore options.
You could raise the vehicle on Half Downs, or switch to a 255/30/19, or install SPC camber arms and camber in the rear just enough to clear.
