I had a slight clearance issue at full lock when I installed my BC ER coilovers, but this was the wheel hitting the external reservoir and I was able to rotate the placement of the reservoir slightly to prevent that.
Hrrmm so with some negitive camber and around 1inch drop or so, 19x10 upfront should have minimal rub with a 265 35 or so?

Edit* with a +30 something offset. Any issues with running the 19x9 F 19x11 R? I would think this could possibly create some unwanted understeer? Maybe i should create a thread in the wheel/tire section.. Sorry for the jack!
