Default Wheel fitment question...
There is a set of wheels for sale locally that are 19x8.5 +25 & 19x9.5 +40. I am going to be running the LS400 BBK upfront. Will these wheels clear this BBK? Ideally I'd like to run 245/35 & 275/30 tires, respectively. Will this be OK? I'm not planning on slamming the car, either DF210s or CS's. thanks in advance.

Depends on the design of the wheel. More than likely you'll need spacers to clear the bbk but we need more info on wheel design.

spacers or maybe modifiy the fender in front with a 2mm offset. but with a spacer to clear the bbk you should be fine.

not a bad looking wheel
