yeah it looks like the offset is 42 for front and back.

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...ugh-shoes.html

here is a link where someone has 19x11+47 with 295/30/19 on the rear. they fit fine but your offset is +05 less and your pushing 1.25 adapters. im not sure if they are sitting at stock height or not either. so it looks like you will have some major poke if they do fit.

I say order the adapters and do a test fit.

Honestly I'd sell those wheels. It's gonna be tough to fit those and those rear tires are way too wide. Save yourself the headache.
