ok i am looking for some wheels for my goat. i want to go with 19x9.5 in the rear with 275 tires. is there any way i can do this without rolling or cutting my fenders? if i run this setup what would be the best to run up front cause i want a 19x8.5 in the front. i guess what im asking is what size tires should i put on the front and will i have enough clearance? what offsets should i get? sorry if this has been answered b4 i didnt have the time to go through the 15 or so pages to find it. if i cant go with the 19 could i go with the same setup except 18 and not roll or cut anything? thanks for your help

I don't think there's any 9.5" width wheel you can put back there without rolling/cutting your fenders, there's just no a lot of room to screw around with.
As for the front, I would try to find a wheel with an 8" width and run a 245 series tire. You're already going to have very little sidewall with 19's and putting a 245/35/19 on an 8.5" wheel is going to stretch it even more. You'd dent those wheels in a couple of days, I'd wager.
If you're set on 8.5" wide wheels up front though, you're going to want an offset of around 35mm-38mm, anymore and you're risking some strut rub.

in order to go 19x9.5 and not roll fenders with 275 you must go with custom wheels with a minimum offset of 54mm otherwise going with 19x9 with 45mm offset the tire to be safe would be a 265 with small overall width.
