You're using a slightly different wheel than mine sure, but the math still works to show that you'll have risk of contact between the wheel and the strut depending on what you have for alignment and how you're driving the car. For instance, if you try to put an EC7 19x10 et25 on the front with no spacer or grinding, track alignment, and sustain any type of lat while driving, it's going to hit the strut.

If you know what alignment (specifically camber) specs you're going to use and what type of driving you're planning on doing I can give you a better idea if you'll be at risk of contact or not.

I am currently in the same boat as this guy asking about the 19x10 except staggered. However, since Im a Noob when it comes to tire/wheel.. I'm interested in a setup like SeanBlurr photo shared above but I'm not willing to do any grinding whatsoever. Pretty much I want a Plug & Play setup. I can handle 19x10 ET 20 with 285/30/19 and 19x11 ET 43 305/30/19. I dont mind this setup. I will be using stock camber and the car will be used as a street and weekend track warrior once/twice a month. The question is will this work? Should I worry about the speedo error as well since I am getting 5% based "willtheyfit.com" on the uses of the car or Should I go with a taller tire like a 35?
