Me trying to push it to the limits with spacers!

So I have purchased a set 10mm & 12mm rogue spacers. Today, I decided to install them since I now have my rear fenders rolled. My wheels are 275/30/19 ET33 rear & 235/35/19 ET35 Front. I installed the 12mm on the rear first. As soon as I layed the car down the car sat right on the tire! I removed the 12mm spacer and installed the 10mm spacer. I took it for a spin and soon as I hit a corner at 10mph I scraped. I'm currently on H&R sport with Koni yellows. I originally purchased the spacers for my winter wheels which will be 230's with factory spec tires. (not runflats, just factory size specs). I just wanted to share this with anybody whose trying to push it to the limits. NO I'm not selling my spacers!

Had the same problem. It's your tire 275 series tire its a bit excessive in my opinion, people typically run 265/30/19. If you ran that set up with a 10mm spacer you'd be fine. Or run some negative camber.
