Good day everyone, I'll start with my setup in case anyone in the future is going for the same setup. I have a IS250 with 18x8.5 +35 (225/40/18) 18x9.5 +22 (245/40/18) Varrstoen ES2 slight fender roll in the rear lowered about 24.5" from top of the fender/quarter arch to the ground on Megan EZ coils. Very very little rubbing in the rear none up front(no fender mods). Although the front is kinda weak and could use a spacer or different offset.

My question is however would my front wheel setup clear IS350 brakes?

Thanks in advance for any info

looking to put some Enkei T6S' on, 18x9.5 +30 on all corners. Will I need a roll in the front? If I do the front, what tire size should I run?

Default buddyclub 18/7,5 - would it fit?

hi guys,

i am thinking of replacing my wheels... unfortunately they are not stock, aftermarket wheels came with the car when i bought it used.

i have a chance to get a set of buddyclub rims.
18x7,5 (all four wheels)
ET42
73.1 hubcenter - i assume i will need a converter ring to 60.1?
and the tyres would be 225/40R18 in all rims, in the rear and the front.

car: 2007 RWD Lexus IS 250

what do you think, would this config ok for my car?
wouldn't it cause trouble for me in stability etc?
does anybody have a list of accepted tyre/alloy ranges?

i know the original wheels are 8" in the front and 8,5" in the rear and with 225/40 and 255/40 tyres... it is almost impossible to get factory wheels in my country and i like the buddyclub more..

thanks

Has any fit a 20x10.5 +25 under the front if an ISx50? Trying to see what I can get to fit without modifying the fenders too much

Tire question,

I am now running a 10.5 +32 or +34 (i forgot) on tire sizes of 245/35/19.

I am lowered about 2 to 3 fingers from wheel lip to rear fender. I want to throw on 255/35/19s instead.

I have stock camber arms, so my "stock" cambered from being lowered is roughly 2.5-2.8.

Will those 255s fit?

Oo also I am coming from federals, I want to switch to Hankook v12s. 0 rubbing issues with the ferderals at 245s

Default Offset??

What's up guys!
I've been looking to get a set of Vordoven Forme 9 (Work Emotion CR reps) wheels but questioning if the offset will fit on my 07 IS350 without a lot of work.
18x9.5 +12 Fr
18x10.5 +15 rr
Plan on running 215/35 fr n 245/35 rear. I'm lowered on Megan EZ coils with fenders rolled and bumper tab relocated. What other mods would be necessary for it to fit? Thanks in advance!

today i got a new winter setup, coz i hate ugly *** wheel season..

rims are RH nbu race (german manufacturer)
18x8.5 offset 45 ,
tires 225/40 pirelli sottozero 3

my car is lowered with kw variant 3 coilovers + stiffer springs.
pic:



to achieve a more aggressive look i bought spacers. back: 30mm per side , front: 25mm per side .
the front pokes now 5mm more then my summer setup (19x9 225/35 offset 36)

so new offset 20 in the front, 15 in the back. the back is no problem but the front is rubbing like hell. at the bumper tab of course.
i knew I could encounter some problems, because in the past 2 years i did a lot of research in wheel setups and i read this complete thread.
well, in the aggressive wheel thread 19x 8.5/9 offset 20ish is very common but I just don't get it how people can drive like these. more stretch and rolling the fenders would help yes. but it just won't help to clear enough space. a single turn with a pothole or a bump will end in serious bacon fender.

here is a pic with a quarter wheel turn, which is not enough for most corners






so, finally my question: am i doing it wrong or is the pain tolerance a lot bigger from most of the guys here?

looking to buy some varrstoen es3 19x9.5 19x10.5 +22 or zedd sl5 19x9.5+22 19x11+25. I have sport package on my 07 with factory fsport suspension and not looking to slam the car anytime soon. When i got my alignment recently the rear camber is at -2.

My questions are
1) will these clear the 350s calipers? the research ive done suggests the es2 wont clear what about the es3. Ive found nothing on the zedd sl5s
2) how far will 19x11 in the rear poke out? I dont mind rolling and pulling fenders and stretching tires just dont want them to look ridiculous
