I bought 19 inch amg wheels and they rubbed in the back. I had 275/35/19 and they said to get my fender rolled or they can send me 265 for free so I opted for that. My offset is 35mm and nothing has been done to the suspension. Will this take care of the rubbing problem?

Hey Guys, rolling your fender might work. But we did 20x9 20x10 on a W220 with that 275 Rear tire and it worked just great without having to roll anything.
