265/35ZR19 fit 19s?

265/35ZR19

Will these fit on the rear 19inch AMG rims, no rubbing??

currently have 275/30/19, these new ones are slicks though.

Like Tank said, they will be alittle taller, bt you definetly wont rub, besides, reflecting on your previous posts, your rears wont last that long anyway so put them on and show them no respect, melt away those ever so different sized tires.

I bought a set of the Hooiser A6 Drag radials... Gonna see if that will help my 60 times at the tracking and then gonna get the ECU tune in the next few weeks too.

Hooiser A6 are not drag radials, they are autocross tires with extremely stiff tires. Drag Radials usually have extremely soft sidewalls that allow the tire to flex then rebound.

Drag tires have softsidewalls to do this

I had my 265/35/19s fitted 3 weeks ago - no rubbing issues. Slightly taller hence speedo supposedly out by a little bit.

Yes you are correct. They aren't drag radials.

but they will be sticky enough to help with traction at the track. Better then my 320 tread wear tires I have on now at least.
