Could someone recommend setups for 19 and 18 inch wheels for a lexus sc300, please include the offset? Are there any performance all season tires that would go with this setup?

The wheels I'm lookin at are lowenhart BS5 (not sure if any one is selling these now), and Dazz Matiz.

Thanks in advance.

Is weight a concern?

I'm more concerned with the look...I think. I don't like the way the stock wheels/tires look at all.

I grabbed this from another post about a SC, from SoCalSC4. 19x9 and 19x10 with a +35 works for him!!


For my personal SC400, I wanted a very aggressive look (19x9 front +35, 2" lip & 19x10 rear +35, 3" lip) with a flat rim style, hubcentric wheels, and clearance for Supra brakes... there aren't many options for wheels for someone like me (lucky for me, I am the Project Manager & Fitment Developer for HRE!).

I believe that SoCal's setup will require fender mods...
personally, I'm going to do the following setup on my SC...19x8.5 +41 and 19x9.5 +39

It shouldn't require and mods...

Hi Manaray,

Are there any all season tires that go with that 19 inch setup? I'm from Boston...

I have been looking for wheels in a few months. Places that offer wheels don't seem to offer all season tires. Normally I guess people would buy tires and wheels separately but for some reasons it's hard to find a place to mount these big boys. One place I know charge a ridiculous $50 to mount/balance 1 tire. I defintely don't want to spend $200 just to mount/balance tires.

The wheels I am looking at are Lowenhart BS5 (not sure if I can find these), Bersaglio Spoke (These seem to look exactly like the BS5), and Dazz Matiz.

I'm kind of leaning to:
1. 18x8.5 with yokohama avs db 245/40/18

2. 18x8.5 front with yokohama avs db 245/40/18 and 18x9.5 back with yokohama avs db 275/35/18

I think these are the right setups based on what I see on different posts here. The only thing I'm not sure is the offset.

Thanks.

I don't think anyone offers an all season 19" tire...why don't you use your stock wheels and put on "winter tires" for winter and then use the 19's with high performance tires for summer...

If you buy your wheels from one of ClubLexus vendors, they can have the tire mounted and balance for you before shipment. That way, when you get 'em, you just need to put them on.

The BR5 and Spoke 2 are the same wheel. Why not get some of the new Spoke 3's?

J.P.

The new spoke 3's are pretty tight pvo. They don't list them on the website but manaray posted a pic of them on a LS a few posts back.
