Default 18x9 +12 18x10 +15?

I am starting to gain interest in picking up these set of rims.
The set up is:
18x9.0 +12 (HI)
18x10.0 +15 (SLO)
Tires are Cooper Zeon ZPT 225/40/18 and 245/40/18.
Just wanted to make sure and ask the wheel pros how this set up would fit on an SC300.
Also if anyone is running this set up or knows someone running this set up and has pictures available please post them or pm them to me. Thanks Lexus Coupers

I dont know if you took a good look at my car when it was in my garage but Im running a setup that is very veryyy similar to what you are looking for with the same size tire. I dont have pics at the moment.

Should fit pretty flush, will need a nice drop to set it off.

i'd suspect that you would need some serious fender rolling wouldn't you?

I already have my fenders shaved, so that would not be an issue.

The rims will be out past the fender unless you do somthing serious with camber.

I barely clear the wheel on a rolled fender with 18x9.5 +25 using stock suspension geometry.

since you already have fender modification, it should fit with some nice stretch.... lets see some pics when you finish it.... will look good
