9.5 et15 with 275/30/19?

What do you guys think? I have 9.5 et33 with 275/30/19 hankook ventus v12's. I'm getting my fenders rolled, and I want to add a 12-18mm spacer in the rear. I meausured, and to me 18mm seems a little too much considering I dont have any stretch, but it should be close to flush. Should I just go with a 12 or 15?

I know 9.5et15 has been done with a 255 before on a prelci. I know 9.5et22 has been done on a lci with a 275 but he had close to 3 degrees camber.

It will be close. Best thing to do is to measure from the tire to the fender and that will tell you if you have room.

I would try 15mm spacer. You still might need some added camber and as you know remove the fender/bumper bracket.

Thanks guys I measured it already and the wheel will be flush, but since the tire is so square on the wheel I think its a little too close. I think the 15mm will be perfect. I'm getting an alignment on Tuesday what should I ask them to set the camber to? I don't want the tires to wear out too fast on the inside.
