Need to know if the rears with 9.5" width (31 offset) will rub with 285 shoes ... I know the 10" width (33 offset) rubs with 285 rubber but will the 9.5"?

Fronts should be fine right ?

E55 AMG
I have the SL65 wheels on my car which have the same specs, if your car is stock height you will no problem, however, if you have lowered your car, the rear will rub for sure as I had the same problem.

There is a fix for this, I swapped the offsets from the back to the front and so on!...by undoing all the the wheels and swapping the middle sections around, I found this eliminated rubbing and has given the car a more aggresive look.

if you are unsure, you are welcome to take a look at my car.
