PSS size problem for te37s

Hey guys,

I need a set of new tires soon for my 19" te37s, wheel specs are 19x9.5 +22 19x10.5 +22.
My ideal sizes are 255/35 and 285/30, since PSS does not come with 285/30, I am thinking about 285/35, what do u guys think? I know with +22 offset, 295/30 will rub, and 275/35 might be too stretched on a 10.5" wide wheel. My car is also lowered on KW V3. Any input/advice is appreciated...Thanks guys.

PSS run wide and a 275/35/19 would be a better bet as a 285/35 is pretty tall. They would not be stretched at all.

Running a 295/30 rear and granted yesterday was my first day driving on it so far I've had no run even with a trunk full of (heavy) stuff. Stock zcp suspension though, so being lower might be a problem.

Unfortunately this size will rub slightly with a 10.5 et22 wheel. Especially if you lower the car.

I have the TE37 +22 rear. I tried the 295/30 on my Bilstein lowered suspension. I rubbed badly. Had to switch back to the regular PS in a 285.
