Sorry, I missed your widths when I first posted. Too much wine! Anyway, I have Wheel Dynamics RPK-038 19's and they have a completely different configuration as they are "deep dish". I run 19x8.5 (et. 45) & 19x10.5 (et. 52) 235/35R19 Front 275/30R19 Rear. As mentioned my fenders are rolled and rubbing is not an issue. You really need to know the width of the rim. Tires can make a difference as Oldcarguy mentioned. Even though the numbers might be the same, various sidewall/tread patterns can work, while others might not. Another "issue" is trying to keep the overall tire diameter close to the original tire height
