285/30/19

folks, i checked Tire Racks website and they list 285/30/19 as an alternate tire size for the rears on a 2010 Vert. has anyone tried this size on the rear of a coupe or vert? should look good if it fits correctly.

yes im lowered on bc coils. about 1/2" lower all around than my eibach pros. and 285/35/19 is the best match to stock tire diameter besides 275/35/19.

i dont have any new pics cause the tires have only been on a week but ill try and remember. my full specs are:

255/40/19 with -2.5 camber and 15mm spacers
285/35/19 with -2 camber and 15mm spacers

i trimmed about 2" of fender liner above the rear tires and i rub occasionally on large dips in the road.
