The title says it all. Myself and another friend here in NM are looking to do the same thing. We both have oem 19's and have out cars lowered (1"). No spacers... There are far more 275's than 265's to choose from but are concerned about possible rubbing issues. I know this is only a change of 5mm on each side of the tire but would love to hear from the wheel/offset experts on this forum before we potentially waste money. I appreciate your thoughts.

You will have to go 275/30 from what I've read numerous times on the forum.

those 275-30 is way of smaller compared to stock 265-35, the 275-35 would be a perfect choice which provide more protection for you wheels and look more flushed.

i'm running 275-30 on stock 19's as my winter setup with 5mm spacers, no issues.

You will not rub with 275/35/19 on OEM rims in the rear if you don't use spacers. I have Nitto NT05 in this size and am lowered on H
