I'm surprised the 275's on 10" rim with 38 offset would rub.
I had 9.5 inch rims and 265's with 39 offset and had a decent amount of room to spare.
Guess you'd need about a 30-35 offset for the 10" rim and 275's not to rub.

Its all good.
Yeah I thought the samething but I took a look at my rear I could only put one finger gap which I was suprised since I only have the ZSP suspension. But like you said my brother its all good.

i am gonna lower it first to see if that helps with the looks... however, i am having the pros perform corner-balancing and they will adjust the height for optimal performance.

if after lowering , the rear still looks funny, i will change the tires to bigger ones..

rubbing or no rubbing doesn't matter...

i will roll the fenders, if needed
Hey I know you will make it look perfect!

on 19x10 most people do 265. on 20x10 most people do 285.

im sure the main reason he isnt satisfied with the rear right now is because relative to his fronts, his rears are a lot higher. its not the tires issue.

this is barely dropped vs stock:



compared to another 19x10 rear with 265 with a much lower drop (ksfrogman's e90)

Carlito, I forgot that was your car. I should've introduced myself. I really liked your car a lot. Silver cars with silver wheels just look so clean, I exactly put it into words but everything just flows really nicely.

Carlito....Any vibration from the Senekas?? I just got mine and at some speeds there is some serious SHAKE....Took them to my wheel guy and he checked them and there is some pretty good runout on them which I am not too happy about after paying the kind of $$$ that I did for them.

Anyone else have this issue or any thoughts on how to fix it??
