19x9 ARC-8 TIRE 255 SQUARE? Will it Fit?

I just picked up a set of 19x9 ET38 Apex ARC-8 wheels. I wanted to go staggered but this was the only available setup in stock with the huge discount.

I was thinking of running 255/30/19 for a square set up? possible spacers needed for rear and maybe fender rolling on the front?

Any recommendations for a possible staggered setup? Thinking 245 front and 265 rear?

I know there was someone with a 19x8.5 255 tire square set up with no rubbing issues. Has anyone heard any fitment issues on a 19x9 255 square set up?

255/30/19 is too small, speedo will read high. 255/35/19 is more suitable but if you don't care, suit yourself. 19x9 et 38 with 255/35/19 will fit almost exactly the same as 19x8.5 +35 except the tires will be 3mm further tucked with no bulge in sidewall because it is 1/2" wider. it is unlikely you'll need spacers unless you want it poking.

there are many threads about this same fitment in this section currently at the moment, please review them.

Ya, that's what I was assuming. I've read a lot on square setups on 8.5in but not on 9inch wheels. Thanks for the info
