Nice wheels. Those look similar to my Niche Misano.

How much negative camber are you running to get the back wheels to tuck? Did you have to run any negative camber for the front?

I just got the car aligned to factry specs. I believe no camber adjustment is possible on the 3IS only toe adjustment. The fron wheels slightly rubbed when goin over big dips but nothing a heat gun cant fixed. Is good now.

My rear setup is similar 19x9.5 265/30 but i have +40 offset. My tires stick out much further than yours. It's practically flush. I am on half downs, so that could be why. I believe that as you get lower, the top of the tire angles in more right?

Thanks for the quick response. You car looks great, but the rear camber is definitely outside of factory specs. Most people on 19x9.5 +40 are flush and only tuck tire because of tire stretch without running negative camber.

Just looked at the printout I got from where I got the alignment and camber rear for both sides is -2.3 with a cross camber of 0.0. It says the specified range is from -2.3 to 0.8.

Man you are right at the limit. I stand corrected.

Quick question. Do you think I could run 19x9.5+38 in the front and 19x10.5+32 in the rear and not have any rubbing issues? Currently dropped on Tein Street Flex coilovers.

What are the measurements on stock IS200t non-F Sport wheels? I've looked and looked and I don't see a definitive answer.

I am looking to run 18x8.5 +44mm all around...can someone help me ballpark how these will fit?

I'm running 18x8 +32 and 18x9.5 +40 and have no rubbing issues. Car is lowered with RS-R Half Down. Are you sure you want to run a square setup? Otherwise, you shouldn't have any issues with 18x8.5

Thank you for taking the time to reply.

I'm on the fence about a square setup. I am now studying a 18x8 F and 18x9.5 R setup. Mid 30s offset front and low 40s offset rear, like yours. I think this strikes the best balance between looks and practicality. I drive 20,000+ miles a year and want something bulletproof.
