You misunderstand me too.. I know thats a dynamic situation because sometimes depending on your wheels specs you have to or you dont have to (roll)... I was talking on my situation with my specs...

Like I said, you might and might not have to. Just because yours clear doesn't mean every one elses will. The fact that some tires stretch better than others and vice versa, says that tiny 1mm of clearance you have might not be enough for other users/tires.
I personally dont feel comfortable with that much clearance and would roll my fenders even with your tires.

Been reading here for a long time, and am still confused. I have an '06 350 with the 18" 10-spoke chrome wheels. Trying to determine the offsets. Sewell's parts site has both the 8" and 8.5" wheels listed with an offset of 45. But a guy at a tire shop said one of my offsets was 50, according to something on his computer. I couldn't find it in the documentation on Lexus' web site, so can somebody tell me what my offsets are? Thanks.
Edit: Oh, yeah. Mfg date was prior to May '06. (Can't remember exact month, but that probably doesn't matter anyway.)

Hey guys. I've searched a ton and can't get direct answer. I have the sport suspension on my is350 (don't know if drop is any different). I'm looking at 2 sets of wheels. I don't want to roll or pull fenders.
Forgestar f05
19x8.5 et 45 front and back
235/35/19
First will these clear BBK?
What's maxx offset for flush without rubbing.
or
20x8.5 et32
245/35r20
Rears 20x10.5 et30
285/30r20
Any help is appreciated.

just to alleviate some of Vroomin350's workload as the designated 2is wheel fitment guru. 
it's 18 x 8 +45 in the front and 18 x 8.5 +50 in the rear.
the square set-up (19x8.5 +45 + 235/35-19) will fit without the need to modify your fenders. BBK clearance differs by manufacturer/wheel line, so you should probably check w/ forgestar to find out. however, don't expect this to be a flush set-up.
the staggered set-up (20x8.5 +32, 20x10.5+30) may require a roll in the rear, depending on tire size. given those you listed, you'll definitely need a roll in the rear - and you still may have clearance issues. this set is definitely more aggressive than the other set you listed, but you may need fender modifications and running narrower-sized tires to make this work.

Thank you. I guess the Sewell parts listing was just messed up by trying to list the specs for both wheels on the same page. There's a radio-button for changing from 8 to 8.5, but it doesn't change the offset number.
