Hi folks!
My question is for tire fitment:
I have 19x9 front rims and 19x9.5 rear rims:
The tire I want to use is:
275/30ZR19
Will 275 fit on a 9 inch rim?
I had these tires on my previous rims, and they are sensational, even for the price. I got these new 9 & 9.5 inch rims with the thought of going to 275.

That's some good news! but I think I'm more worried I'll have to replace my fronts 9 inch wide wheels, to fit the 265s 
If I had to replace my fronts, I might as well replace all four rims/tires and get rims that are "most appropriate" for 275s - I'm guessing 10.5 wide wheels would best fit 275?
Thank you so much for your expertise!!
If I had to "replace" rims = 4x 19x10.5 rims at 43 or 40 offset is what I'm thinking.

i need help with wheel and tires
I need a little help, i am about to purchase the rota p45r wheels, i was planning a 18x9.5 rear and 18x9.5 front, both with a 48 mm offset. i need some help with the tire size as well, i was going with the falken rt615 tires i just need to know if they will fit and the tire size. I was also purchasing the s tech springs, would they make it rub, or are the a good addition to the setup? please respond as i am to be purchasing them in the next day or 2. thx

here's a "for fun" test fit of my MR2 spec work meisters that were on my s2000. 
Keep in mind that it has basically no camber since the car didn't move once I set it down. I'm pretty certain that I can clear negative offsets on a 9" width wheel.
PS: my car's stock. I'm still doing research on rx8 coilovers. Already have the wheel fitment measurements down, so don't argue with me on what fits or not on stock body.
17x9 +35 with 20mm spacer = 17x9 +15 with 235/45/17 Dunlop Direzza DZ101

i have a few more questions:
i've been looking at 17" wheels. can i run a 17x10 without rolling, or do i need a 17x9.5? what would the optimal tire size be for this? can i use a 275/40/17 or 285/40/17 (for the 10")...
or should i go with a 35?
also, what spring/shock combo would lower this setup enough to look nice and handle well?
