Linas are sounding promising, since a spacer shouldn't be needed to clear front brakes on the IS350.

So these are the new wheels that don't require front spacers on the IS350?

btw, the wheels look great on your IS!

I like the sound of rubbing. Means im low enough!! Heat gun at AUTOZONE. But you gotta take your sweet time to do it right.

i fixed that problem with a heat gun.... point it to the liner where its rubbing for about 30 seconds then push it in and problem solved, you dont even have to take the wheels off just turn the wheel all the way and itl give you enough space to work with

wow..? how is that possible. I am running same tire size and my front can barely fit a finger in unless I angle it and I rubbed off my fender already. Now I am rubbing on the headlight bracket. I am planning to get 225/35/19 soon. If that doesn't work, guess I have to raise my car up.. that is why we have coilovers
