Can I fit 19 X 30 X 265
Can I fit 19 X 30 X 265 in the rear without rolling the fenders? I am not lowered yet but plan on lowering my car about 1" - 1.5"

Lowered or not doesn't matter. But what is your rim size and offset?. There can also be differences of more than 1'' in width between different tires with same size.
Rolling fenders in the rear is not so effectiv. The tire will hit your bumpers befor it will hit your fenders.

Very nice looking wheels. Don't know if 19' is not too extreme... Ride hight needs lowering. Gives the impression that the car is ready for a drive in the fields

agreed, cant wait to lower it. Probably wont be lowered for a couple months, I plan doing the HID conversion to my fogs first, then lowering. I probably am going to go with the vogtland kit, what do you think?

. Looking at the front of the rear fender it looks like it will touch my tire if my suspension compresses enough and I am pretty sure I heard a SLIGHT rub when i went over this steep transition a little to fast, I am pretty sure the front of the rear fender was the culprit. Has anyone here rolled their fenders? I am interested in hearing how it was done, I want to make sure I do it right the first time.

After I lowered my car I put a 2-inch round piece of wood between the tire and the rim and worked it slowly around the fender until I had plenty of clearance.
It is the old fashioned way but works if you take your time. I did the same in the front, but also got the stick too far up up into the fender and accidently put a couple of dents in the fender. Nothing bad, but you can see it if you catch the light just right. It sort of pisses me off for not using better lighting, when I did this.
But by doing this to the front and the rear I can now fit 255mm tire to the front and up to 285 in the rear, I run a very wide 275/40/17 Kumho Victorracer in the rear during the summer. You will have to take and grind down the bolt heads which hold the inner fender in-place and to also cut back the plastic piece that goes between the fender and the bumper so it does not rub on this piece.
