The fronts should be good after you roll, but I recommend relocating the bumper tab especially with that offset and if you want to go low on coils. The rear will need a decent amount of work, at least a roll and pull and relocated rear bumper tab. You could shave rather than roll but that's up to you. You might be alright after you do that depending on how much you pull. It'll require a pretty good pull w/o camber arms though.
to add, note that the bumper tab is plastic, while your fender tab is metal. the bumper tab won't do much damage if not taken care of, but the fender tab will scallop/groove your tires if not taken care of properly.
also, when fender-rolling, make sure you apply enough pressure to not only roll the fenders flat, but also get a natural pull while getting the fenders rolled to get just enough clearance.
not a dig at RVCAis250, because he's spot on with the suggestion, but a lot of people tend to confuse the fender tab and the bumper tab.

Is it possible to pull it off without pulling? I'll roll, shave, and run camber arms, but I just don't like pulling haha. Thanks in advance once again!

I'm new to the forums and just bought an 06 IS250 RWD. i came from an e46 325i and i must say i adore the IS so far!!
My question is this, I have BC-R Coils coming for my vechile and i plan to slam it. i also got a good deal on VS-XX from a friend, the sizes are
19x9 + 28
19x10 +36
Will these fit? What kinda mods will i need to do to my fender ( I never had to fender mod on my bimmer, the fitment was perfect, i decided to try a more aggressive stance with my IS)
And what tire sizes should i run?

and
245/35/19, might need a roll in the front. The rear should clear fine, if not then roll just a little bit.

Pole Position
i need a tire with a good sidewall to to I will be more on the negative camber side. I used to run General Exclaim HP's but they are discontinued.
Looking into the Hankook Ventus V12 tires due to good feedback from other stanced setup cars.
Already used, Falken 452's and not pleased with them. They lasted but road noisy/ hard for me.
Wondering If I am numbering stuff up correctly.
these are my current specs
20x9 + 14 and 20x10.5 +23
235/30/20 and 265/30/20
new wheels
20 x 9.5 +15 and 20 x10.5 +10
This is the lowest tire size i can run in Tampa, FL due to every other shop was BS'ng
225/30/20 and 255/30/20
should I run with that or
225/35/20 and 255/30/20?
in the pic, fitment now... new wheels and fitment I am looking for which is close to my wheel/offset.
