Step lips make the center face look smaller. A 19" step lip wheel uses an 18" wheel face. Still a nice wheel. Gonna stretch a bit 600?

225/35 n 235/35 depends on your offsets. are they in low twenties?

you can actually run 245/35-19's in the rear - given that the rear fenders are rolled and the fender tabs are shaved.

i'm doing it w/ PS2's, and they're known for broad shoulder tread blocks and thick sidewalls.

215 or 225 in the front if you have agressive offsets. The front is the most headache usually!

to many, this may not be that exciting, but for us IS250-ers, this is a huuuuge upgrade!
