Default will my wheels size/offet will fit for my sc300??

aight i am debating whether w/c of these two sets imma go for:

17x9 with +20 front ..planning 235/40/17
17x10 with +25 rear ...planning..245/40/17

OR

18x10 with -12 offset ..235/40/18
18x12 with +7 offset ....265/35/18

im not sure if any of these two sets will work...im wondering if

-stretch tires to make it fit
-roll fenders
-would need a wide fender

I really just dont wanna go wide body..i would rather find ways to get the wheels to work with stock fenders and roll them at most..let me know and thanks for any input guys.

The first set will work with rolled fenders, no problem.

The second set will require some serious fender mods ..

I think even if you pull your fenders and run a maximum amount of camber they will still be poking a little bit.

Don't get me wrong, i'm not trying to doubt you, i really love aggressive wheels.. but i think this is too much for sc stock fenders even if they are pulled.

I agree

mongo is running 18x10 +24 all around and its flush if not a little out of the fenders. They are rolled but not pulled.

the front will be out 31 mm more.

You might be able to pull it off if you flip the metal of the fenders and then roll/pull them. You will need paint and body work after that.

Great sizes ! If you decide not to get the 18x10 and 18x12 let me know I may be interested.

yea alright i got another set im looking at:

19x8.5 with 235/35/19 tires
19/10.5 with 275/30/19

i was thinknig that 17s might be too small for the sc...so i found a good price on this set.. It came out of a z33. so you guys think i should just use this set so it will fit and not alot of mods with the fender clearance? thanks again for any input..

ps..yea i can get those 18x12 wheels for your friend..if he wants them..it has to be ordered from japan...its work rezaxx wheels..hot wheels...let me know

I ran 9.5s with a 17mm offset and 8.5s with a 17mm offset. I have to roll my fenders some and when I slammed it, I stretched some 245s out back. I could have kept the 275s, but I didn't want to pull my fenders just yet.

Reason I sold them was because they wouldn't clear BBK. Man I miss that 4 inch lip

19's would fit your car nicely but i would really go with 18's set, if you want different look from other SC, its an aggressive look too.

If you go with 18's, you HAVE TO pull your fenders.

No 17's, you'll regret it. They look tiny on sc's, just go with 19's.

will it fit? roll fenders? pull? or it will not work and hit something..what you guys think. If this will work, then this is the set im going to buy
