Just got new tires, staggered
275-45-19 in rear
245-45-19 in front
Will check tomorrow if they rub.
Did not get installed till late today, a few blocks from the house.
I do hear rubbing when I turn.
Might have to take the old hammer to make a little room..
Had 265-30-19 in rear
235-35-19 in front

they probably rub because you have a tall sidewall on an already big rim,,you should have got some 35 series tires instead,but i will not judge anymore until i see some pics

That's really not good...
1) Very heavy wheel/tire combo = slower & bad fuel mileage + more unsprung mass
2) 45 aspect ratio on a 245 and 275 = very large overall diameter = less acceleration
3) Wider in the rear = understeer
I think you're on par with a 350Z that's got a dead cylinder
