****Official Wheel & Tire Fitment Guide for SC300/SC400****
#1517
Why not just get wheels with a better offset. With that big of a spacer you might need longer studs. Also if you want that stretch look then why not run the same size tires as him?
#1518
It wont stick out pass the fender, it will almost be even with it. You should roll your fenders anyway if its no problem, because it might rub on dips. Tires depending on the look you want but I would say 235/40(front), and 265/35(rear).

Was wondering if this would fit on my SC300.
18x8.5 with a +32 offset
18x9.5 with a +39 offset
I have supra calipers in the front so I wonder if they will clear or not also.
Thanks!

Based on dimension and offet, the wheels will fit the body of the car conservatively. The rears will be a tad sunk. If your intention is to not roll the fenders to achieve maximum fitment, run modest tire widths (255/265 in the rear & 235/225 up front) and you should have a decent set up.

If you got 25mm adapters that would put you at a +15. Thats with in a few mm of eggmans. So if you want the same look then get the same size tires. Sence you will have the same rim width, and offset as him. And on the adapter thing I have know idea if there safe. My friend has them on his lowrider and he seems to be doing ok, and he hops it. I think his are a 20mm though.

I'll take your word for it.
Now, eggman has 225/35/19 on rears. Can I get 255/35/19 ?
I assume 255 is wider, right?

Yeap its wider, But if you look at the rear of his car I dont think a 255 would fit with that offset unless you run alot of camber. Maybe a 235/35 or if you want to push it 245/35 with some camber. You might could try 225/35 front and 235/35 rear. But sense you know that offset with thoughts tires work, I would just go with what he has.

newbie question-
I just bought some is350 rims for my sc300 that are 18x8 in front and 18x8.5 in rear. I have been searching but cannot find what type/size/brand of low profile tire would be best for a performance/comfort combo. From what I've read the Michelin Pilot Sport PS2s are pretty good, is this accurate?
