possible rubbing issues? help?

sorry for more questions guys,

I have a set of Volks GT-30 19x9.5 fronts and 19x10.5 rears going along with Vredsteins Tires 245/40/19 and 275/35/19 coming in soon. now.. would i need to cut the rear plastic piece on the inner fender or grind down the plastic there before hand so i dont run into rubbing problems?

I know wheres a DIY thread somewhere on here for it but i cant find it. any suggestions or links?
thanks fellas

If your car is not lowered it wont rub. If you are lowered it will depend how low and you may have very minor issues.

offset would help. you should be safe with an >35ish offset. if you are worrying about rubbing. go with like a 255 or 265 in the rear and 235/35 in the front. just my 2cents.

Pei, this is what you are looking for...

Put the wheels on, if they rub, this is what you need to do.
