Will 255/40s rub on a lowered 9.5 +12?

OMG - I'm assuming fronts were rolled and rears pulled? And the rubbing is front fender? That does help a little. The 275 I think is about .4" wider than

OMG - I'm assuming fronts were rolled and rears pulled? And the rubbing is front fender? That does help a little. The 275 I think is about .4" wider than the 255. Makes me think this just might clear except on really big bumps. I'm probably gonna need total clearance though cause I hope to have these tires last till I sell the car, hopefully next summer.

Anyone else?

Fronts rolled/pulled. Rears left alone.

Rubbing was only in the front.

The rears have a lot of room. I'm running 19x10.5 +22 305/30 rear right now and I'm about to throw on 10mm spacers back there.

Hope that helps.
