Decided to go with 295/40/18 in the rear and 245/40/18 in the front I was worried about the rear panel, just a light roll of the fender and And it fit great. I was surprised how it change the look of the car.

Evo X GSR Enkeis 18X8.5 +38 offset. 22lbs a wheel, and i had them from previous DSM builds. Stock suspesnsion, will update when i install coilovers:
I'm actually pretty happy with the fitment (minus the massive wheel gap), the weight isn't terrible, and i got them for 200 bucks originally so...

i have a chance to buy a set of Is250 rims for $200. i looked up the offset and its +50 the same as the sunken factory wheels. does the fact that they are 8.5 in wide make a diffrence? Is there anyone who has had these rims on their SC? Should i getthem or keep lookin?

Fitment help
Hi guys it seems that this thread will be a life for ever, many thanks newyorksc who started it.
I'm going for some very basic fitment, Lenso D2R 18*8 / ET +38, thinking about 245/40/18 tires to avoid big speedometer wrong readings, and I'm Megans coil-overs, as per this thread everything will be fine with no issues.
.... I will be happy to see some pictures for the same set up if somebody has it the same.
many thanks in advance.

hmmm... with the pull you might get away with it, but it's gonna be tight. more than likely you'll need more stretch and probably some extra camber.
edit: front's will fit with a little stretch just fine on a soft roll like mine.

should have went with 295/35, since that 40 profile you have is too much for this car and those wheels
