Default Blitz wheels on a 1995 LS400?

I can't be more happy with my recent purchase of a 95 LS400, and now I'm looking to upgrade the wheels. I came across a set of Blitz Technospeeds in the following size: 18x9 +31 with 235/40 and 18x10 with 285/35 +36. Will these fit without issues? Any help or insight is much appreciated.

Thanks

The front is too aggressive, the rear is okay, but u should run 275 instead of 285.
But, they'll fit with some wheelwell mods.

Thanks for the info What would be the recommended offsets for these widths without body mods, as well as tire size so that the speedo wouldn't be out of calibration? Also, what is the widest width wheels without any fender work on the 1995 LS400?

By too "aggressive" do you mean they will protrude? What would be the proper offset to make the wheels flush?

Thanks

I don't know about the speedo accuracy cuz i don't think it'll be off by too much. Too aggressive means the wheels will stick out from the fenderwell.
For 18s' flush look, I would run F: 18x9 +36 & R: 18x10 +36

I assume offset is the same for 19" wheels, is it correct ?
