Man I'm new to isf world an your guys cars a huge inspiration for my dream build! I test fitted a spare set of xxr 522 19x10 +20 275/35 hankook Evo v12's today an I like the look but not the weight. I might try my supra's g35 sized volk gt7 19's an if they fit im gonna search for another set. The xxr's fit the rear with the suspension and fenders untouched so I went ahead and ordered the fronts in 19x8.5 +15 an will run them for now. Happy to be here an I'll post welcoming thread soon.-justin

My specs right now are

front: 19x9 +24
rear 19x10.5 +31
Wow, the 545r looks so sexy as well.

What size tires are u running... those offsets are crazy aggressive.

HRE recommended me 19x9 +35 & 19x10.5 +53.

So with the gt7's: the fronts clear the calipers but aren't as far out to the fender lip as I'd prefer, the rears need to be rolled/pulled about 3/4" to keep them from being cambered (not a fan of stuffing ridiculous wheel/tire combos an cranking the suspension way out of whack. I gotta upload my pics since I can't post them from my phone but I took them already.
