Guys I have looked at so many different set up on here my head is spinning. I just installed a set of Tein SS coilovers on my IS350. Now I need new wheels/tires. I want as deep lip wheels as I can get and still have 3 people in the back seat. I do not mind shaving my rear fender a little or heating the front fender linings. Can someone give me a suggestion on what to get. I like 20's but I like the deep lip more 19's would be fine as well. What offest and size wheel/tires should i go with?
Thanks

Calvin is any fender rubbing for the front with that low offset? the reason iam asking is planning to put my 20x9.5 with 35" offset on the back to put up front. and order 20x10.5 with 37" offset for the back, I already have rear fender rolled, but i don't want to do the front fender at all. hope this will fit without touching the fender.

Are you running into problems with the actual rim hitting the fender? I know its cut, but since you are running such low offsets.

Depends how low you are! But offsets seem fine.

I'm thinking of getting wheels made up, custom order. Size would be 18x8.5 +35(f) and 18x9.5 +30 in the rear. I would be pretty low. Will I run into rubbing issues? What mods might I have to incorporate? Any suggestions would be great. I would normally go for 19"s but this company only makes this particular model up to 18". Thanks.
