Tire size is 275/35. I have about Finger & Half gap up front and 1 Finger gap in the back.

Looking to upgrade to coils just to kill all the gap though.

That drop is pretty impressive. I live in cali so I'm not looking for a damn slammed drop. I actually have these eibach springs

Well, depending on the wheel you get (I'm assuming) you'll probably need a a rear fender roll.

My TE37 9.5/22 with 275 tires kiss the rear fender on some roads with bumps. I don't know if 265 would have the same problem.

I believe some people who have the 265's are getting away without having to roll the fenders. But I think it may have to with the tire brand as well.

My old X. Volk CE28 Formula Silver 18x9.5 +28 on Yokohama Advan AD08s 265/35/18 with Eibach Springs.

Perfect Fitment. No rubbing whatsoever. No rolling or any modifying of the car.

+28 Offset will be hard to find, but in my experience, if you want to run this combination size, its the only combo that you will not have to modify the car.

Yes. You will need to roll the fenders. For anything under +28, you pretty much have to with a 265 tire.
