Default Need help on rim and tire sizes?

Debating in getting another set of 18's or going bigger to 19's. I'm looking at the crimson myrtle 19x8.5 +40 front and x10+45 rear. My fenders already rolled front and rear. Not pulled. And suspension setup is Megan 32 way adj. my question is will that rim size fit on my first gen gs without anymore fender mods on the rear? If so, any recommendations on tire sizes? Thanks a lot club Lexus. This is my first Lexus and loving it. Came from the Honda world and had success with my underdo 90 accord. Any inputs is greatly appreciated.

You should be fine with those depending on how low an what tires you use. I have 18x10.5 + 40 with 225/40. I had to add 2.3 degrees of camber over stock to make them tuck but I'm pretty low. Post pics after tou get them on. Get a lower profile tire and stretch em a little to help with the clearance. You might need to add some camber too. But then again I don't know how your car sits. Can't wait to see it
