Hey found another set was wondering if I would need any fender work with:

18x9.5 +38 offset front and rear

Stock height right now will get fsport in future

car is a is350AWD.

TIA

Personally I think 17s are way too small for our cars. 18sis even pushing it in my opinion. The only reason I would go with 18s is if I was static.....so I could be lower. 20s depending on the wheel can look ok but most of the time look too donk. 19s are the happy middle. Just my 2 cents

I would go with a roll just to be safe. +38 isn't too aggressive and 18s on fsport springs should clear just fine.

18X8.5 with +35 offset. Want to run a square 255/35/18 setup for track only. These will not be my daily driving wheels. Do I have a chance up front? Lowered to about a 1-1.5 finger gap on BC's coilovers with 12/10K Swift Springs. Might consider a fender roll but no more.

Default 2011 is350 awd

So im on the verge of buying vossens this week or next and I wanted to know if anyone could give me a possible offset so I can fit 19x10 in the front... even w/wo spacers. Right now im at F19x8.5+32 and R19x10+38 if I go with the smaller size.. but I want that 10 in the front. I know ill have to do fender work thats not a problem. Just someone please give me a workable offset.... if anyone is on long island with 19x10 wheel may I please do a test fit...pm me please

Hey sorry if this is a dumb question but I just want to make sure... I'm looking at a set of 18x8 all the way around 38+ offset LFA style rims for my 13 is250 awd... Will they fit? And what size tires will I need?

They will fit without any problem I would use a 225/40/18, since that the tire size that comes on the factory front 18" wheel.

I'm looking to get Niche Veronas 20x9 35 offset in the front with 245/35/20 tires and 20x10.5 30 offset in the back with 275/30/20. If I lower it an inch or an inch an a half would I rub? Or would it be safer to go 20x10 40 offset in the back?

I currently have a 04 RX 330 with the 5 spoke rims, and they are chrome. I was wondering if those 18" rims would fit on an IS? I believe the tires are thicker on my RX so I would have to change out the tires also?

Thanks

You'd need to provide a little but more info like width and offset of the wheels.

Looking to see if I can fit some Avant Garde M560's/Varianza T1S's with G35/Z offsets on my IS-F...

Fronts: 19x9.5 +20
Rears: 19x11 +18

I know a roll and at least a slight pull will be needed for sure, I'm on BC coils and Megan rear camber & toe arms. Thanks in advance!

Hey guys! I have a is250 awd stock. A seller is selling his g37 wheel and I wonder if I can get it without getting new tires. I know ppl with this set up have 225/35/19 front and 275/30/19 rear; does the width matters a lot?

Front: 19" x 8.5" 114.3x5 +43
Rear: 19" x 9" 114.3x5 +45

Front: Bridgestone Potenza RE050A 225/45/19 92W
Rear: Bridgestone Potenza RE050A 245/40/19 94W

If you are planning on going low at all a 225/45/19 is going to be hard to fit up front. You will definitely have to relocate your bumper tab.

I just had to get rid of my 225/40/19 after a day because of the rubbing....so I went with a 225/35. But the smaller width and higher offset might help ya I dunno
