just curious with that current set up how big of a spacer do you think you would need to run to get a flush fitment?
I finally got my wheels built and tires put on. My goal was to have a set-up I could use as a daily with minimal camber and non-stretched tires. Just in case anyone's curious:

WHEELS: Work meister S1 3p 18x8.5 +30 (2.5" outer lip) / 18x9.5 +24 (3.5" outer lip) (no spacers required)
TIRES: front 225/40/18 rear 245/40/18
DROP: 2 inches? on Megan LPs (would like to drop another 1/2")

FITMENT: 1/4"/ less than 1/2" sunk in front/ flush at rear (rolled rear fenders are a must unless you stretch tires?)
ISSUES: with my current drop only issues are going over pot holes and some steep driveways. tires rub inside fender liners sometimes but not the bumper tabs. No issues on u-turns
fitment looks proper however I should have went with a smaller profile tire.

QUESTION: would running a 225/35/18 and 245/35/18 be a noticeable difference or should I run a 30 profile?

Those are my friend's wheels lol.
I'm running similar fitment (slightly more aggressive) on my IS. 19x9 +21 19x10 +21. I needed to roll and slightly pull my fenders, but I have camber arms to straighten out my camber. If you have some camber then you should be fine with just a roll. Just remember you should relocate the front fender tabs.

Most setups are 32 and 38 offset. Anyone knows if 30 and 36 will be problem?

Hello, I would like to purchase these STR06 rims fit my car? They look just like the CV3s without the 2000+ price tag, and I'm getting a good deal on them.

My car is RWD,

I'm looking at 20 X 9.5 offset of 35
And 20 X 10.5 offset of 40.

I'm aware I will need to do fender rolling, and maybe even a pull, but I have no issue with that.

I hope this isn't a repeat question as I couldn't find anything definitive about these specs. My issue is only with the front wheels.

I just bought a set of VIP Modular VRC13 19x10.5 +25 all around. The guy had them on his 2011 IS250 lowered on coilovers with everything else stock, and said he was able to clear them up front by stretching 225/35/19 tires.

My 2008 IS250 is bagged, with SPC balljoints up front maxed at -3 degrees, fenders rolled and bumper tab removed to fit my current 9.5 +15 stretching 215/35/19 up front.

Will I have any issues fitting the 10.5 with 225/35/19 in the front the way I'm set up right now? I'm only looking for full lock turns at drive height, and fender clearance when I air out.

I feel they should fit, esp. without having to clear bigger brake calipers.
Im on BCR coils, but also SPC camber, also maxed at -3 same size front tires and bumper tab moved
My fronts are 19x9+9 and I can go full lock with room to spare

Thanks for the reassurance haha

Moment of truth on Feb 20th! I will keep the forum updated, with pictures of course.

Shout out to IG user tailored_media for selling me the wheels. For previews of what the wheels look like on a 2is, I suggest to go look through his pictures. I would post them here myself but that just doesn't give him enough credit.
