'07 is250 awd
19x8.5 +35 all around

F sport suspension

Would this set up require rolling?
Look flush?
What would my my variance be?

I'm running this exact set up with a very slight bit of rubbing full lock left turn. other then that its beauty, no rolling, decently flush.. not sure what you mean by what would my variance be?!

Awesome - thanks for the response.

I was talking about the famous "1%" difference in tire rotation. I believe it's the diameter and speed variance that you want under 1%, so I was curious how close to stock that set up is. Thanks again.

I ran 19x9.5 all around +30 and i went with 235/35/19. You will have a little bit of rubbing which will require some cutting away and bracket removal, but then I was slammed.

You need to post offset. But since you're not lowering by much, probably won't rub unless you're running +30 or lower..

I want to run CR Kai's Ultimates 19x10.5 +32 f and 19x10.5 +22 r with 255/30/19 all around. Will these specs work on a 2-3 inch drop? I am rolling my fenders also.

Probably not if you're only lowering 20mm. I've lowered mine on coils probably 2.5"? This is my car on 18x9.5" +30, with 245/40/18 tires. Camber in the rear corrected to -0.5 degrees, I believe the same for the front. So your wheels will sit out just like mine do, but you'll have more wheel gap.




I do rub up front though, to the point where I had to bend back the metal on the bumper tab. I haven't gone as far as relocating the bumper tab like others have done though. Keep in mind, I'm running 245/40, so even at my height if you run 225s you shouldn't rub anything but the fender liner.

Lol, exact same wheels I have, then again it is a very popular replica of a timeless classic. At least mine are powdercoated a different colour

Looking to purchase a set of wheels with the following specs for my IS AWD:

Wheels (front and rear):
Diameter = 19"
Width = 8.5"
Offset: 35 mm

Tires:
235/35/19

Will these work without any fender modifications? Also, will they sit flush?

Thanks in advance!

17x9.5 +30 all around on 235/45/17. Car is lowered on Tein S-Techs. Does anyone know if this will rub? what about on 245s instead?

Thanks!

As for why 17s, because im trying to preserve ride quality as much as possible while lowered.
