Lowered car rubbing?

Planning on getting some 19x8.5/10 wheels with 235s and 275s in the rear. Would i rub if im lowered 1.5 in the front and 2.0 in the rear?

Rears will probably need a slight fender roll with 19x10+22, especially with 275 tires.

are your rear fenders stock (unrolled/shaved/pulled)? if so, you will definitely rub with 10" rears with +22 offset and "normal size" tires of 265 or 275.

You might rub a little, especially if you have cargo or people sitting in the back. Might need to shave or roll your rear fenders.

To me ET22 on 19x10 and 275/30 tires and 2" drop sounds like a lot of rubbing.

Dude you gonna rub like crazy with 19x10 et22 with a 275/30 and most def if your dropped... I mean its not even close, even if you use a thin/narrow tire like FK452's.

With that rear width and offset, your even still gonna rub quite a bit if you go to a 265/30 in the rear. Dial in some negative camber, use a narrow 265/30 tire, and a pretty good fender roll and should be ok with that wheel width and offset.

Dubbadubdub. You'll need to have a fender roll and maybe a pull. If you didn't want to do as much body work, run a narrower tire.
