it will rub like a mofo....40-45mm would be better and still may rub a little under full squat of the rear.

Ayton is on the money. The 35mm is too low with a 19X9 wheel.

damm, thanks for the replies guys.

stock offset is 47 mm. 35's will stick out 12 mm. (1/2 inch) and could rub.

They actually would stick out a lot more because the wheel is a 19X9. You then have a lower offset and a much wider wheel than stock.
