yeah they should! i have the f-sport brakes behind my five axis wheels and they barely clear! its literally about a millimeter and a half from hitting but it clears! i think it looks sick when its that close. the back is fine..you'll have plenty of room in the rear. you just have to watch out for the front. i have +45 in the front so ur good. heres some pics...

Default Thoughts, anyone?
What are your thoughts on carrying 255/35/19 on the rear with this wheel?

Anyone riding on 255/35/19's here?

That's actually the Lexus-recommended rear tire size for 19's on this car.
