Default Wheel Fitment

What is the most aggressive setup I can run on my 2007 IS250 RWD without having to pull/roll/camber? I will be lowered on EIbach Pro Kit springs and i'm looking for 19" wheels.

Looking for a set of LM Reps, thinking of going the Varrstoen ES1 route.

Thanks!

You can spend days reading each page of that thread and get differing answers.

F: 19x9 +35, R: 9x10.5 +43 to +45

The above will provide a pretty good flush fit. Tire sizes vary...225/35-19 and 255/35-19 is common.

Approx how big of a lip will the 19x10.5 +43 be in the rear?

I'm looking at the Varrstoen ES1 specs, they have the following sizes:

19x8.5 +35
19x9.5 +12, +22, +40
19x10.5 +12, +22

Looks like I wont be able to run the 10.5 in the back without mods... what sizes of the above would you recommend?

If you want no work to be done I'd go with the 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 +40. 225 up front if you can find tires and 265/30/19 in the rear.

I have 18x8.5 +35 in the front on 235/40 and there are no issues with rubbing. In the rear, I have 18x9.5 +40 with 265/35 and without any weight in the back, there is no rubbing. With the suspension under enough compression though, I think it may rub the fender. I personally think it could use a roll to be totally safe

Seriously considering these wheels, could I get some input please:

Work Rezax II
19x8 +38
19x9 +32

Will this fit okay without needing to roll fenders? What recommended tire sizes should I run?

Does 18x8 +35 (F) 18x9.5 +45 (R) have somewhat of a flush fit as well?
