I want to run 19's
If I wanted to run 19's, what is the most aggressive, wide wheel I could go with without having to do any fender mods?

You can start by searching, many topics out there already covered this.
But since I don't want to be an a*hole,
19x9 +25 , 255/35R19 lowered by 1.5" fr 1.1" rr no rubbing, any wider and you might rub.

I know people running 19x10 ET25 with 265/35/19 rubber on Swifts (-1.0" F, -0.6" R) without issue.

Ask them to go around a bend aggressively and I'm sure the rear will rub, it rubbed on 18x10 +25 265/35/18 lowered on Eibachs, with coilovers you can prevent rubbing by stiffening the damping.

Be sure to compare the tire diameters to verify you are similar to stock values. 275/30-19 is .1" to .2" smaller than the stock diameter where as a 265/35-19 would be .5"-.6" larger than stock and cause more potential rubbing issues. Getting the offset as far inward without hitting the suspension avoids as much rubbing into the fenders as possible which is usually 25-30mm offset. The aggressive tire/wheel combos are usually 9.5-10" wide and around 20mm offset. Running a little more negative camber will tuck the upper portion of the tires into the wheel well better.

Wow!!! You must have some pretty nice roads in your area because their is NO WAY that we could run 19's up here without damaging the mags... Crapy roads.
Send some pics when it's done. I am sure the look will be crazy!!! Specially the size of the tires. It will be fat ass wide.

The Eibach drop is more aggressive than the Swifts, that will make a difference.

i agree with seven_227
i agree with seven_227 on 19x9 25 offset on 255/35's. i use nitto invo on advan rs-d and ohlins coilovers. no rubbing issues anywhere. however tire seems a bit stretched over rim and so i am looking to change to a 265/35 or 275/30 setup. thanks.

we run 19x10 with a WIDE 285,
15mm offset, on kw v3's down pretty low..
trimmed front and rear...
If I wasnt too much of an over achiever, and used a nice 275 it wouldn't have required any front mods lol

I run 19x9+25 with 265/30/19 tires and I get some rubbing under hard cornering. Fenders are not rolled but I'm lowered on Stance coilovers
