tire size

Hi,
I know this is probably a repost but I need to order tires soon. I ordered 19" TE37SL 9.5f 10.5r. My car is lowered on KW V3.
I plan to run michelin pilot supersport and wonder if 265/30/19 on front and 295/30/19 will be okay? or 285/30/19 will be better on the rear. I'm afraid that 295 might rub. Any help is very appreciated.

Thank you

yes 295 will be fine with that set up... i know guys running it without any issue... BTW how low are you drop... cause if your really drop you might have to camber it a little bit

just an FYI with 265 front you might rub on full lock on the inside though.

I went with 275/30 - 295/30 on those same wheels. Had to max out my stock camber front and rear (i'm on Eibach's). No regrets. The car handles great!
