Default Tenzo R Type-M Version 2

Hi Guys,

Greetings from Sweden!


I'm New to this Forum as you can see.

I really need your help.

I've got an IS 250 RWD - 2008 and I would like to hook it up with the Type-M 19 x 8.5 in the front and 19 x 10 in the back. Would these rims fit my stock car?


I know that there is a thread about after market wheels, but I havn't found anything regarding this specific question.

I've e-mailed Tenzo, but been unsuccessful.

So, I really need your help before I order and have them shipped overseas.

offset of 22!!!!! are you crazy!!!!!! that will rub like crazy in the back. to put a
10" wide in the back you want it to be in the 40-50s offset. You can make it fit with the 22 offset but you will need to roll fenders

So the 19" with the 45 offset it should work both in the front and back?


Or should I rule them out completly since I have a rwd and the rimbs in the back therefore need to be " bigger"..... Or is this assumption totally wrong ...??? do you follow.....

you can go 19x8.5 front with 19x10 rear with 45 offsets all around. that way you will have the staggered look.

Listen to me bro, I know the specs of the most aggressive 19 inch setup with 19x10 and 19x8.5 that you can run with zero problems. I got custom wheels built by Work that are on Passnus car now and they are 36mm front offset and 38 rear. He is lowered on 275/35/19 tires as well, which are much taller than the 275/30/19 most people run. He is pretty much slammed on Tein S techs as well, he has a small amount of rubbing, but only because of big tire he is running in the rear. If you ran 235/35/19 front and 275/30/19 rear you would be GOOD TO GO.

I agree with sincityIS. I just bought some MOMO rims that are 19 x 8.5 front with 38" offset. I am running a 235/35/19 front. I have 19 x 9.5 rear with 38" offset. My rear tires are 275/30/19 with no rubbing. Those specs you gave I don't think had offsets listed. I would call and check to be safe. A 22" offset does not seem realistic. Good Luck.
