what exactly is rolling/shaving? rolling is when they push the fender out right? Also what tires did you guys get? I got toyo proxies t1-s. How are they compared to the other tires out there like the geforce?

Default going to rub

I got my volks ce-28n's a few weeks ago. 18x8.5 and 18x9.5 offset 40. with a 1" drop and 275/35/18's it rubbed a little. If you have 19's and only a 36 offset you are going to rub. I rolled my fenders myself and eliminated the rubbing problem. If you dont want to roll your fenders get an offset of around 45. rear only, the front you can go with 40 or so.

you will rub. change your order asap. a higher offset will still give you a good amount of lip.

if you shave off the inside lip of the rear wheel wells you can get an extra 1".the only way to run 275 with cut springs and no rubbing
