Default GS3 Rim Fitment Help (+15 offset)?

Okay, i did the search, and looked on line, but could not find it for the life of me,

well im wondering if a set of rims.

(19x8.5 @+15 offset)

will fit a 2000 GS300?

the whole car is stock so i dunno if there are any mods that are needed, I really dont want to do any, but if i do please let me know.

hmm... i don't think it is a good idea..

i would say it will fit if it's the same bolt pattern but it might rub due to the fact that your rim/tires will be coming out more, Ie: ur stock offset is +40 so u get the picture..

and if u plan to lower the car in the future, u can forget it,

i would say NO!

the 19x8.5 +15 will work on the rear

Its gonna be really tough to fit that on the front though

yea, rears are gonna work, but fronts would be tough

I'm using a 8.5" wide front with a +25mm offset and i'm pretty much at the edge

I supposed with some negative camber and some coilovers you'd be able to run them
