Ok, well I did the 245/30 and the 275/30 Falken with an H&R drop and here are some pics..



Now here it is with my Hankook v12 255/30..



This is with +20 and +25 offsets
I seriously like the 255/30 with my H&R drop better. There was no rubbing at all with minor adjustments with the 255/30. When I had the Falkens there was a lot of rubbing but I took care of that by cutting liner. The look of the Falken is a little more bulky. I seriously think if you have an Eibach drop this is the way to go. 245/30 and 275/30 with falkens or toyo. For s tech drops and H&R drops I think 245/30 and 265/30 is prefect with Toyos, but that is expensive, but it would be perfect. You could also go 235/30 and 265/30 with the s tech drop or h&r drop for less expensive tires. With my next set up I am going to def. get 245/30 265/30 or just stay with 255/30. CV3 will be soon! Any questions let me know.

appreciate your honest opinion , i like the idea of 265/30 problem is those sizes even w Toyo will be at least $1000, look into General Exclaim UHP if you want 235/265 for under $600... me personally love the 245/275 look , but to each there own ! at least now you know what you want so get it done , i hope u will be happy w 245/265. i am debating on 235/265 but we will see , i think im gonna change up completely and do somethng i like best

Great thanks for your feedback, I just dont like completely modifying the liner and bracket in order to fit 1 size bigger in tire size....But I guess if your going to run +25 in the rear and you are low your are more than likely going to have to do something to make it not rub...

if you get falkens and your on eibachs....prolly not much. I was mainly rubbing on the liner. but again my car is like 2x's or more lower than yours. Like I said in the post I think this would be a good size for the eibach drop with +25. But then again I cant say for sure.

Oh nice, is he dropped on eibach with g37x or regular coupe?

How difficult is it to shave and move the screw? Will it have any issues with functionality performance?

I got +29 offset in 19x9" rear and i had rubbing issue with 275/35 .
265/35 is perfect but its rare in our market so i ended with 255/35 rear & 245/35 front which i am happy with.

I don't know how did you manage with +25 offset ! its really nice.

What kind of tires?? I think your rubbing had to do with the 35 series tires... what was your drop? Falkens are very skinny tires, they kinda look like 255's there shape is different.
