C350 coupe 2012

Would I rub on the back with 265/30/19? 19X9.5

Hi
I have a C350 coupe. I got CEC wheels 19X9.5 for the back with 35 offset and I am planning to get 10mm spacers to make them 45 offset. I need to know if it will I rub on the back with 265/30/19?

The tire set up is ok but u will rub in the rear with a 35 offset am running a 40 offset in rear with 265 30 tires an sometime I rub over bumps only if am going fast but now that I got my fenders rolled an lowered on h&r super sport spring No more rubbing. So a 45 offset an 265 30 tires should be perfect with no issues

Better you make the ET above 45. If you can, make it ET 48.
But if u dont lower, i think its fine.

Yap, thats true. Add spacer will reduced the ET.
if he want to make bigger ET, he have to "chop" the ET

If you add a 10mm spacer to a 35et wheel you will now be at 25et..
AMGboy is saying he sometimes rubs with a 40et, so 35 will be worse..
2 options, get rid of the wheels and buy ones with proper offset, or run a slightly stretched tire, 255/30. good luck
