bump anyone running a 255 rear with a 19x11 +25?

Also does anyone have a problem with the front fender leaving a dimple after rolling?

And can I roll the rears?

fronts roll without dimples. if you run 255, you will need a shave and a slight pull. you can run 245 in the rear and just shave it. rears will dimple if you roll it.

How do you pull the rear? It's not the same as rolling it?.
So the fronts should be easy with a roll.

Many different ways of pulling a fender, the easiest is to use the roller. It's easier if its shaved. Yes the fronts are easy to roll.

19x9.5 +22 front - 225/35/19
19x11 +25 rear - 245/35/19
You'll need a 5mm spacer up front to clear the LS calipers.

Would it be bad to pull fenders with a roller, if they are already rolled but didnt dimple? would they dimple you think?
I would like to fit a 255 on my 11 instead of a 245....

Enjoy!
Is there any way you could take some close ups on the tires and rims. My fronts are currently at 225/35/19 and rears 245/40/19. I am thinking about gong a little bigger on the front. The ones I have right now are too thin

Hey guys, In slight relation to this thread (didn't want to start a new one just for this certain question)
anyone know of an oem lexus centercap that fits Varrstoens?
Did a quick search but didn't find anything.
if it matters, I'm running 19" ES5s

I'm running 2 with no center caps because of a mispacking issue with Varrstoen (been dealing with them for over 2 months about quality issues and a simple sending out of centercaps still not resolved but this is another issue )

I'm at the point I've given up with their poor customer service and would rather put on a set of different center caps (prefer lexus ones)

thanks guys
