Kuhmo Ecsta SPT 265/30/19 will it rub?

I'm getting in iForged sprints pretty soon and I have a question on the rear tire fitment. I'm planning on running Kuhmo Ecsta SPT 265/30/19 tires and I was thinking whether it would rub or not on an e92 with an h&r sport drop.

Has anyone had this setup before? I don't know what the offset is exactly because iForged does not release them.

I know a guy who had h&r race on his e90 with these same wheels and he had a 275 in the rear, he did not rub.

it depend on the offset.i'm sure the will rub if on m3 fitment.since i got my seneka in m3 fitment with 265 toyo t1r.i got rub fender.and my friend's comment on his Kuhmo Ecsta SPT 265/30/19.he said his tire just like 275.so i assume they r wider.

I really don't think they are. I think the wheels are meant for e90/e92 fitment but I could be wrong (I picked up a used set). I know Kuhmo's are wider tires which is why I'm asking if I'll rub with a 265 in the back.

I run 285 on a 20*10 rear iforged lowered and I barely rub so you should be fine.

Offsets on iforged are typically +37 rear and +34 front

Do you only rub on some dips or all the time?
