Default Please help on rear offset on 19' rims.

Ok. I already did a search, but did not find the answer. Any help would be appreciated.

Looking at a set of wheels. The specs are:
Front - 19x8.5 +35 offset 245/35/19
Rear - 19x9.5 +25 offset 275/35/19

Anyone know if this will fit a GS300 on Tein CS w/o rubbing or needing to modify the fenders? Thanks.

The front will be perfect. The rear you should be fine aswell. If they were a 10" wheel I would be worried. You may have to do a little fender shave in the rear, nothing major at all though. Should look hot.

When you say shaved, you mean i need to cut the fender? What about rolling it?

The front is great. The rear will not fit without cutting out the inner metal lip inside the rear fender. Even then I dont know...... It would really help if those rear tires were a 30 series. You can make anything work if you really want it to.

the rear offset isnt too aggressive but the tires are too wide so it will cause rubbing in the rear. a fender roll would help but i recomend 255. im running 19x9 +30 225/35/19 fronts and 19x10.5 +29 245/35/19 in the rear with a mild rolled fronts and rear
