he meant screw that IS, not the brand lexus, he's talking about 2 spacific cars not the brands in general.

Ok everyone, I have a dilemna. I am currently going to get rid of my 19" volk sf winnings, and I want to drop down to 18's. I removed my 15mm spacer, and we were test fitting my friend's wheels off his 350z, and here is what we came up with. Sorry for horrible pics, but these were taken from his iphone:

Name:  IMG950040.jpg

These are work xd-9's, 18x10 +18's. His tire size is 245/45-18.

Now, I'm wondering, would I even be able to run this wheel setup, and if so, what tire size would be recommended? I would like to keep my tires that I have right now, which the size is 255/40-18, or would I have to run a different size?

My fenders are cut right now, but I don't know if I would have to mod further by rolling.

I am running JIC FLT-A2 Coilovers, set on the stiffest setting in rear.

If these do not fit, then I am contemplating on ordering the new 11r's in bronze, 19x8.5 +30 Fronts, 19x9.5 +20 Rears.

Thanks for any help.

Oh yeah, and just for ****s and giggles, here is the same wheel and tire with my 15mm spacer that I had, but don't pay attention to the way this looks, I am removing the spacer haha.
