Will 295/30/19 tires on 11" wheels fit in the rear?

I'm specifically looking at that tire size because it does not upset the rolling diameter too much while giving the rear a more aggressive rear. Will this size cause any problems or have others done it successfully?

Also, what are the offsets recommended for a 19x11 wheel?

I did a search and came across these threads but they were without a conclusive answer.

Hey Guys- New Member w/ modded Cayman
rear tire size

its a 52 offset with a 15mm spacer. That should do you just perfectly

The 295/30R19 will fit the wheel correctly but it is going to be tight in the wheel well.

Daniel - I recall in another thread you were taking the car to the track... if so, and you do go to 295s in the rear, you also might consider going to more rubber in the front as well... the cars already understeer like crazy, and putting that much rubber in the rear will only exacerbate the problem further. Going to 245s in the front will help alleviate some of that.

Thanks for the advice Brad. I was planning on just getting some long lasting tires and wheels for the street and swapping the stock 18s for the track. I'm not sure how the car handles at the limit yet but I hope to find out this weekend. I'm sure we could tweak tire pressures too.
