So I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea but I’m tryna fit some 3 piece wheels I have the specs are 19x11.5 +12 235/35/19 for the front and 19x12 +12 245/35/19 for the rear. The fronts clear the breaks but when the lugs are tightened down the wheel won’t move because it hits the back of the wheel I have a small slip on spacer on it rn which is either 1/4 or 5/16 would a 10mm help get me off the brake enough for the wheel to safely spin? Any help is greatly appreciated pics of the wheels and my car are attached if anyone wants to see

Wow, that 235 is hell of a lot of stretch on 11.5 wheel. My son ran a 225 on 9" wheel on his 240 and I thought that was max.
I would do some measuring or place something on the rotor to push the wheel out to see if it clears and then order a spacer in that size.
You need to also make sure the tire won't run the wheel well when turning.

Those look like a 350z or a bagged Lexus fitment..... To clarify, you understand a spacer may help clear the brakes, but with those offsets your wheel/tire will be outside the fender.
Do you want to sell them? :)

you can buy concentric spacers for cheap from CJ Pony parts. Like $25 for a pair in 12mm and a little more for 20 and 25mm. Are you TRYING to roll the tire off the bead in the corners?

Such narrow tires for the wheels width is very unsafe

Nothing to do with the spacer question at hand, but to the OP do you plan to fit a wide body kit on your car?

I’m on air so I’m thinking I should be fine without it rubbing on the well

These wheels are made to accommodate stretch

don't they make "spinner" wheels that have an external disk? So you get the naked disk look without trying to throw a bead? And no, your rims have no provisions that I can see to keep the bead attached in any meaningful fashion.
