Not only roll, but you're going to have to pull too. And depending on how low you go you'll need to relocate the bumper tabs in the front and rear.

pull = to "pull" the fender outward (or actually, to push the fender from the inside outward) to create additional clearance.

your wheel and tire specs will require that.

To give a conclusion:

I ended up installing Tein H-Techs (Comfortable, but so much better handling than stock), and swapped my rear for 275/30/19. Fits PERFECTLY, and was exactly the right size needed for a 19x10 wheel.

There's quite a bit of stretch from the tires, and I'm worried that there may be damage incurred from driving in LA. But from experience (due to running 19x8.5 +35 wheels before), the front tires may not be able to run wider tires without rubbing the front bumper tab, but I was wondering if I can run 275/30/19 or 275/35/19 on the rear without problems.

Ran a tire size calculator: It looks like only a difference in ~10mm in width, and ~5mm to ~33mm in overall diameter.

I was looking into the following setup:

20x8.5 +32 front, and 20x10.5 +30 rear

I have my fenders rolled, megan rear camber arms and have coilovers. Oh and I have 350 brakes on my 250

What tire size would be suggested for this setup? I'm looking to stretch as little as possible

Thanks CL

What will I need to run 19x9.5 +25 19x10.5 +22 wheels with2 25/35/19 & 245/35/19 tires?

I am planning on a roll and a maybe a shave as well, and going on BC coilovers 14k/12k spring rates so my fender won't be taco'd.

Is that sufficient enough or will I NEED camber arms in the rear?

I want to be lowered to little to no finer gap, flush as possible, but I don't want to taco my fenders. What should I do? Tuck it in a litttttle!?

Any advice will be appreciated because I'm very new to my car and the car scene. First time modding questions, sorry if this question has been asked already.

Thanks in advance.

The fronts should be good after you roll, but I recommend relocating the bumper tab especially with that offset and if you want to go low on coils. The rear will need a decent amount of work, at least a roll and pull and relocated rear bumper tab. You could shave rather than roll but that's up to you. You might be alright after you do that depending on how much you pull. It'll require a pretty good pull w/o camber arms though.

to add, note that the bumper tab is plastic, while your fender tab is metal. the bumper tab won't do much damage if not taken care of, but the fender tab will scallop/groove your tires if not taken care of properly.

also, when fender-rolling, make sure you apply enough pressure to not only roll the fenders flat, but also get a natural pull while getting the fenders rolled to get just enough clearance.

not a dig at RVCAis250, because he's spot on with the suggestion, but a lot of people tend to confuse the fender tab and the bumper tab.

Yeah cause I'm currently trying to figure how to make my wheels in the back work. I have 19x10.5 +22 and I have rolled, pulled, and shaved and relocated the fender tab and I still rub when driving freeway speeds. I did a pretty good pull too and I'm not sure how much more the quarter panel/fender can take. I'm thinking of going the camber arms route... Any suggestions?
