And with the rear, I'll need neg camber as well to prevent rubbing (remember, in an e93, with the top open and passengers, it sits low, I think lower than an e92 with ZCP) I'm trying to find a set up using AD08s where I won't need to adjust the alignment. Any suggestions Aus? (or anyone)

you rub with 255/35 V12s? Damn that means 110% AD08s would rub..

Go with the more narrow set-up. It's not worth the headache of rubbing; especially if you're going to have people in the back.

if AD08s came in 285/30 that would be the obvious choice..

I have those wheels and I'm running AD08's (see my sizes in signature). I had to max out my camber (front and rear) and do some minor fender modification in the rear. They don't rub in the rear unless the car is loaded up and I hit a large bump. They rub in the front at full lock. It's well worth the slight rubbing for the look, stance, and great handling that these wheels and tires provide.

Are you lowered at all? Do you recall your negative camber? Since you have 275/30/19 F, do you feel that if you had 265/30/19 that the rubbing would disappear in the front, even at full lock? What type of rear fender work did you do?

I run a 265/35R19 square on a 19x10ET20 wheel, and I have minimal rubbing at full lock. When I had 265/30R19's on the front there was no rubbing at all.

what do you guys think about 265/30/19 275/30/19 AD08s?
Since it seems 295/30 might not clear the rear..

Guys.... Try a search. There was a nice thread created about this with various tire sizes, wheel offsets, alignment specs:

but i didnt see a 265/30/19 AD08 in the front on a 19x9.5 et 22 But I guess it's 100% confirmed that a 295/30/19 AD08 in the rear on a 19x10.5 et22 will rub correct? So... with 265/30/19 in the front, should one run a 275/30/19 in the back? maybe a 275/35/19 in the back....?

If I were concerned about rubbing I would get the AD08's in 255/35 and 275/35. I would absolutely not get the 275/30 for the rear. That is too short. the 255 - 275 combo gives you a small width difference and shouldn't look too stretched if you run the ad08's because they run wide.

People with 265/30 are about 50/50 on the rub or no rub (lowered rub, non-lowered seem to not rub). 255/35 Every one rubs..... I'm not lowered, but I know that in the e93, when the top is open, it sits really low.... 245/35/19 275/35/19 actually looks really good IMO. my friend runs it My friend is going to do 295/30/19 Rear (same rims) since his 245 275 is worn out, so I'll just test fit his rims in the rear to see if they rub or not... hopefully since i'm not lowered I won't rub.... I'm at a -1.7 camber in the rear now, the most I can push is -2 or 2.2 if i remember correctly... I need to figure out how to remove the pins in the front...

For those who have experienced rubbing in the front, I was wondering where exactly does the rubbing occur. Is it on the front or rear of the fender, inboard or outboard shoulder of the tire?
