Default Has anyone ran Work Emotion Wheels on their IS?

Trying to get some advice on which sizes and offsets to go with. I have an AWD F sport and I want to run a square tire and 19 inch wheels. I will also be lowered on RSR down springs. I really want the ultra concave for the rears but I am afraid a 10.5 wide w a +32 offset will be too aggressive and rub? That's the highest offset offered in the ultra concave. Does anyone have some insight on what I should go with. I apologize if this topic is posted somewhere else for fitment. I am new to the site and to Lexus. Thanks Tim

For your setup I recommend 10.5 +35 front and 10.5 +35 rear. All depends on if you want the wheel to sit flush, poke out, or tuck. With these specs the front wheel should sit somewhat flush with the fender or poke just a bit. With 265 tires all around you should be ok. The rear will be the same fitment. Worst case scenario, just run 255 tires or do some fender adjustments and stiffen your springs if you're on coilovers (there are a few ways).

I want everything to be somewhat flush with NO poke. I for sure want to run a 19 x 10.5 in the rear and a 19x8.5 or 19x9 in the front. I am also for now going to be running RSR down springs and I don't want to get into any fender mods and I don't want a stretched tire. So to do this should I forget about running the 10.5's and run 9.5's or can I get a 10.5 in the rear in that offset to work without rubbing?
