Please keep the comments on topic. Screen name doesn't have to match rider profile. But thanks for the comment anyways.

Like he said it depends on how low you go! But just about any drop with those specs you will have to roll and maybe run smaller tires!

Can we get some more info Lexus"VIP"...

are you lowered? On what air or coilovers? How low? Pics of car? It really depends how low. If you're not lowered, you'll have the frogger look. you know...the old school game frogger?

I have 19" rays (g35) w/ Front -225/35/19 & Rear 245/30/19 with JIC flt-tar vip coilovers with Exact Mtr adjustable RCA. The setup is flush with the wheels. I will be trading my Rays for the Falkan Koblenz and i will be driving just over 300miles to pick them up and swap them on to my car. I am going to be driving back if the wheels fit good enough without bashing my fender & 1/4 panel during the odd bump or two. Should i worry about rubbing or panel damage during the trip back? Adjustments will be made to the suspension if i can get it home safely to the shop. Feedback anyone?

+37's the max offset in the rear you can run with a 19x10.5 (with Typical 275/30's) before it rubs...Just shave the rear and the 7mm you should clear fine

I decided to pick up next to mint Work LS-105 wheels 19x9 & 19x10.5 for $2500 with tires this morning locally. I will post pics shortly after the suspension adjustments. Thank you for your comments and suggestions.
