try adding a spacer and then see if the roller can make a full pass.

Looking to pickup a set of Linea Corse Dynas from Wheeldude, 19x8.5/10 (e30F/e38R). Tires will be 235/35/19 265/30/19. Going to be dropped on H&R springs. My question is, will I rub? And what spacers would I need to run to make it look flush without having to do any fender mods. Thanks

What tire size would you suggest on Varrstoen 18x9.5 and 18x10.5 +22. I'm on BC coilovers and your help is greatly appreciated. My fenders are rolled and the front tab has been relocated.

can't tell you what you need to do to make them work since you didn't supply offset information.

Anybody have a picture of an IS350 with:

20x8.5 +38 on the front
20x9.5 +38 on the back

I'm looking at the Black Art Tux Wheels.
The car is Stock.
Will they rub?

I tried those exact same sizes and the stretch was just too much

that's the point with those specs; you have to run stretched sizes.

if that's something you're not comfortable doing, then you shouldn't have gotten varrstoens in those sizes.

I don't have a problem running a stretch but the tire place said they weren't sure if the tires were going to seal properly.

225/245 on 9.5/10.5 (respectively) will work fine and is recommended.

Thanks for all the help. I finally received my rims.

The fitment on the front are good but my rears are in question.

I went with a "Hella Flush " fitment. 19x10 +26.

Currently I have a 235/35 tire and I have a question about tires and fender rolling/pulling.

1. I plan on going to a 245/35 but was wondering will a 255/30 work with a fender roll/pull?
2. Does a fender pull make my rear fender a little more flush? [IMG][/IMG]
3. Can someone show me what a fender pull looks like exactly? I do not notice what the fender looks like with a pulled fender? Any pics would greatly help.

I hit a big dip before with two people in the back seat and the fender hit my wheel edge. Luckily it didnt crimp my fender but that is why i am looking into this now.

1. the sidewalls may be too upright and come in contact with rolled edge on the inside of the fenders when a load is put on the rear.
2. pulling the fender out should make the wheels look less, uh, poke-y. however...
3. a good fender pull should bring the fender out but not disturb the lines and creases on the fender. if your fenders are rolled, the rolling action should have pulled the fenders slightly. but from your pic, it looks like it needs more than a light pull.

1. the required fender work for your proposed specs has been covered in this thread many times already. please use the in-thread search function.

2. those tire sizes WILL NOT WORK. you will need to mount the 245's in the rear and go with 225/35-19's in the front. this is after getting your fenders worked on.
