Correct setup wheel for 275 rear tire

i try two time to setup 275 on my rear wheel

First I buy forgestar wheel 19"x10 with 275 -30-19 and it bend in my fender

Then I just buy a wheel setup in 18 inch x 10 with +45 offset and a superb tire nitto NT01 18-35-275 and it bend again on the fender ...

I'm tired to try and been advise by incompetent and buy for nothing.

I need recommendation by people who they already build a setup for that ...

Thank you in advance

*****I need to know which wheel offset in 18 and 19 inch, to put a tire *****

This show that the wheel lip are a bit oversize from the fender

Lowered?

Forgestar recommend 19 x 10 ET 52 for the C63. I run that size Forgestar wheel with 275 30 19 Michelin PSS with no issues.

The et45 is your issue. You want something more like et52 as GRP stated.

Stefj - you used the phrase "bend in my fender "
Just to be sure - did you mean that the tire rubs on the fender?
