does anybody on here have +35 offset on the rear and lowered your ride? if so, hows the handling/rubbing? would you recommend it?

+35 offset with what size wheels and tires?

and handling depends if your staggered or not.

rubbing is... rubbing tire against fender.

the rims are 19x9.5 on the rear and i have 265/35/19 and yes they are staggered

you will sacrifice some handling when going staggered. but staggered looks the most aggressive.

you may rub a little. by going with that offset and tire size, you are right on borderline between rubbing and not rubbing, but my guess is you will. simply shave/roll your fender and you'll be fine.

thanks for the advice. i went to a motorsport shop out here and they said even with rolled fenders im going to rub for sure. but i wanted to get a few opinions before i decide what i want to do. so again thanks

my fenders are shaved and i don't rub at all. i'm running 19x9.5 +36 275/30/19. just get them on and if they rub it's an easy solution.

Interesting. I have 18x9.5 +35 offset, 275/35/18 tires and lowered on just Tein S-Tech. I have rolled the fenders and the tires clear that part, but I am rubbing just a tad on the black plastic inner liner nearest to the rear bumper. Problem is, directly beneath that spot is where the tab holding the bumper to the fender meet.

Weight wise I have a fairly heavy sub box in the trunk. With just myself in the car I almost never rub. With 3 or 4 people it'll catch for sure.

my fenders were shaved and the fender liner was cut on the inner portion. i noticed rubbing still as well from the tab that attaches the bumper and the fender. i shaved off a portion of the metal on the fender and i no longer rub. the rubbing comes from the fender liner and the edge of the fender/bumper.
