Default Wheel fitment. again.

Just wondering if anyone is running a square setup?

Thinking of going 19x9.5 + 25 all around since the wheels i'm looking at only come in that or 19x11 +25...

Would it fit?

Lowered on swift springs atm and can roll the rears if need be.

No, unless you camber, and stretch, then you may be able to fit them. The 11", no way.

The square set up 19x9.5 +25 all around will work for you if you get alot of cambers and roll or full the fender.
With 19x11 +25 won't fit. Try to search 'square set up wheel for lexus ISF ' and you know more about it.

I have ran 19x10 +30 with 245 35 fine up front. The rear will need a roll and light pull if you are looking to run something like 275

Your front will fit fine. I'll be going with 19x9.5 10.5 +35 and 255/275 35 19 combo

That front won't work on an ISF...at +35 I have seen 19x8.5 with 235 tires and the fenders walls had to be heated and moved. And the rear will probably need some fender work if it will work at all???

What?????? ISFpat and I are rolling with even more aggressive setting than that for the front. He is pretty low while I'm not that much lower than stock. We are both rolling on 19x10 +30 with 255 35 19 tires. He is at around -2 camber. I was at 2.5 camber before I went to 19x10.5 for a couple of months before the one of the front wheel got bent when I got crashed into.

Very nice pics...r u running 305 on the rear? Nice aggresive setup

Now back to my post...the OP said he would roll his fenders but did not say anything about adjusting his camber...based on that I think my advice was solid...IMHO

Both of us are running 305's.. although I think he went back to 295's for more space.

Lol, the front natural camber from lowering his car will do just fine. Remember, my setup and Pat's setup are 12mm out more than his 19x9.5 +35

Haha Pat, thought about it! The Zeals 18kg rear spring/coilovers fixed it without me switching back to 295. No more rubbing! Though I'm going back to the TE37 for a while. While Iforged get my wheels done. I hope they don't lag too long

Makes sense...since I have not gone down that path "YET" I don't have a lot of experinece other than what works with the stock setup or maybe with springs...like how does one know if a wheel (aggressive fitment) will work until u try...seems expensive??? And then what r your options to make it work...coilovers, camber adjustments (don't you need to buy different suspension parts to be able to adjust camber?), stretched tires, etc...

It would be great if one of you that have done a real aggressive setup could walk us through all that you went through (in logical steps) to get it setup so it would not rub or maybe at best only rub during extreme siutations??? THANKS!!!

I agree! I've modded many cars and am always totally oblivious when it comes to aftermarket wheel and tire setups. It would be nice if someone can (maybe somewhere on this forum its already been said) let us know what the most aggressive wheel & tire sizes and offsets front and rear, can fit on the IS-F without rubbing or fender rolling. Then list an even more aggressive setup that would require fender rolling & camber adjustments.

I'm basically looking for the most aggressive 19" wheel and tire size and offsets that can go on my IS-F lowered on swift springs without having to roll my fenders and without rubbing. I don't mind stretching tires. Thanks for helping the noobs out!!!!
