I'm running those tire sizes on ZCP wheels. I have 15mm spacers up front and 10 mms in the rear. The spacers are for looks and aren't needed in any way

I'm running OEM 359s 19x10 front and 19x11 rear (professionally rebarrelled and stretched). 255/35/19 front and 285/30/19 rear lowered on B&G springs. 20mm rear spacer and 10mm front spacer. No rubbing. Tomorrow I will be replacing the 255s with 265/30/19! With all that said....you're safe to run your set up!

Never heard anyone do that before. That actually sounds pretty cool. But a 255 on a 10" rim is a lot of stretch, IMO. 255 would even be stretched on a 9.5" rim. Why not go 275/30/19 in the front and 295/30/19 in the rear?

A 255 is a stretch but not by much, thats why I replaced with a 265. I was not educated at the time of me putting a ZCP 19x10 in front so I was too scared that it would not fit or rub from the tire which is why I chose to run a 255. Now that I've done extensive research, I found out that I in fact can run a 275 in front but I think it's too wide IMO. I think a 265 is just fine. As far as the rear, I'd rub If I put on a 295. I'm not using PSS, I'm using Continental DW's. They are a little wider, plus I'm using a 20mm spacer in the rear which puts the tire flush. I'd prolly never run a 295 rear because I think it's too extreme and I never track my car. It's merely a weekend car.

i'm runing 265/35/19 front and 295/30/19 rear
stock suspension, it's rubbing the wheel liner at the front, rear no problem
i think 265/30/19 would be better
