Unless you drop the crap out of it and run hella camber you will rub with a 275. I had a mild drop (eibach) and rubbed with the 265 rear, and I shaved part of my bracket. Keep in mind, I did not take out my liner so it could have been hitting that. Here are some pics.
Wheels look great on the car, but not sure if this going to be the right fit for me. I'm also looking at the Vossen cv5 graphite . I can go with a 285 in the rear without rubbing. What do you think about the comparison between both.

If your main goal is to have meat with the 285's then the conservative offset Vossen's would be the way to go. Vossen makes a great wheel but I honestly think they area tad overpriced for being a cast wheel. However, they offer some of the best customer service one could ask for so that's probably why they cost a bit more which would make it worth the extra cost (when I dinged my wheel Avant Garde wouldn't even give me the color code when I wanted to refinish it, weaksauce), not to mention they have a 5 year warranty. I personally like the look of the M368's better but that is one's personal preference. Good luck.

CV5 will be in the mid 2k range. The Avant Garde M368 MSRP is 1500 shipped.
Its almost a 1k difference between the two.
AroundG37 Give me a PM I want to solve your paint chip issue.

Need to figure out the tire sizes, dropped on Tanabes, planning to use 275/30/20 all around?
