19x11 on a sedan with 305/30/19 tires
I am wondering about cooldown; heat up and cooldown. Or its all hype?
.
I’m wondering how you got it to work?
I rolled and pulled the rear fenders.

I'm running 20x10.5" et57 with 295/30 rears. Fits perfectly, no rubbing. I'd love to drop the car a touch all around and have 5mm spacers to help with clearance by the shocks/inside fender if need be.

I am at stock height & use Sport+ suspension setting to limit bounce. I stretched the fender, its stretched near the bumper cover connection to allow the bumper cover to be pulled outward so the tires don’t rub. I am considering cutting and welding- a small slit and filling in the gap, in a way the bumper cover will fit without modifying it- If I go to 325/25 on 12”.
Tread width on Continental SportContact 295/30ZR20 is 11.1”, which is correct width for 11” wide rim. I am looking at having custom spring made, slightly heavier and a few millimeters longer. That is so I don’t have to select Sport+ suspension every time I drive the car and/or worry about the tires bottoming out if someone (mechanic or valet) drives the car without putting it in Sport+.

You’re going to have some wheel poke both front and back. There’s an undesirable amount of difference in wheel diameter for that setup. 275/30R19 might be considerably better, and match the rear wheel better. 35 ratio makes the front wheel larger diameter than the rear. Clearance with the lowering might be less of an issue running the smaller diameter. I am almost sure +47ET would rub on the inside with the tires I have. Keep in mind the rear fenders are going to need to be pulled. Tires would otherwise shred on the fenders. Having an experienced bodyshop do proper body modification to fit those 19x11’s would likely cost $15K. Regarding rear offset, take a very close look at the fuel tank inlet and the fuel system apparatus inside the wheel well on the right side. Higher offset is definitely possible with some modification to the fuel inlet. In that case, I think 11 inch wide with 295 would definitely fit without pulling the fenders.
