Yes you have to file some of the TPC link off to get it to not rub on a Forgeline 19 inch rim with 48 mm of offset.

From what I've seen across the brands and options, the Tarett motorsport versions make creating additional clearance easier, mainly because of the ability to modify the bolt as opposed to the larger tie rod set up. I will be working on this more while trying to use a set of 19" wheels that do not currently fit on a GT4 soon.

TPC work with Apex SM10 19x11 et46 and Apex VS5-RS 19x11 et45, no grinding required.

Did you run 305's on the 19x11? Im considering putting 19x11 ET48 w/ a 3mm spacer paired with supercar 3r but not sure if it'll clear the fender.

Yes, 305's with no issues. Supercar 3r is a great tire.

If you get/run the Tarett Motorsport toe links, pinch bolt style, they have much greater clearance than the TPC version. I run a 19x11 et60 with a 5mm spacer plenty of clearance.

My track junkie tech uses Tarrett. He’s the ace mechanic that works on all the GT cars at my dealership.

Don't forget to check the actual tires in question, 305 refers to section width not tread width, different tires can have different profiles and tread widths, even when referred to by the same "size".
