Default Wheel fitment?

I’m looking at a set of three piece wheels for my 2gs. 19x11 (+7) / 19x11.5 (0) with 225/40 and 245/35 tires. They are low disk and I have ls400 brakes so I’m assuming I will need to use a spacer to clear the brakes.

Just wondering if this fitment is even possible/if I’ll need to do any major fender modifications?

That's gonna take a LOT to fit those wheels especially when you have ls calipers. I had to sell my ls caliper and put back my stock to fit my 0 front offset. I even had to space it out 10mm to fit the stock caliper. I also had to cut my rear and front fender just to make them fit. A pull or roll isn't going to be enough unless you run mad camber.

Measure, if you have stock wheels, measure the distance from the face of the wheel to your fender. Subtract that number from the stock wheel offset and you should get the distance to flush. Then use that number you measure to get and idea how much you will poke and what type of work you need to make those feels fit. If that makes sense...
