Hey all, just joined the Work Owners club. I was a Volk SF-Winnings Owner, but decided to switch up the look a bit, and experiment with somewhat more aggressive fitments than my previous setup. Here are the specs:
Work Emotion 11R Bronze
18x8.5 +30
18x9.5 +20
Tires are stock sizing
Still waiting on wheel stickers and center caps.
Rear fenders are cut, but I still rub on the tab that connects the fender to the bumper. I'm still cutting away at piece to lessen/remove the rubbing.
Overall I'm happy with the look. I may raise the front a bit, or lower the rear, still playing with the heights. I may change the rear to a tire with less width, bt not sure yet.

Excuse the iPhone photo. Build coming along nicely. Still fine tuning the stance, as its my daily. I'm running less and less camber each week, as I find the fortitude to do so, and ill be coming down 1/4" in the front this week.

19x9.5 +25
19x10.5 +22
225/35 245/35 Hankook V12.

24.5" to the fender up front, 24" in the rear.

I was loved to get same wheels under my lexus but I am little bit confused about those offsets what people have on their wheels and need help from you gyus!!
My current set up is Volk wheels (dont know model)
Front 18x9.5 +22 225/40
Rear 18x9.5 +22 245/35
Here some pics
I almous order those work emotion kiwamis but I am not sure what offset I will need that wheels going to fit and want those to flush with fenders?
people have used offset 25 with 9.5 wheels and offset 22 with 10.5 wheels but..
my car has 9.5 inch width wheel in front with +22 and it is like pushing out little bit too much (measured to fender anf wheel is about 16mm outer than fender)
and rear is pretty good at the moment with 9.5 inch with +22 so if I want 10.5 inch width wheel and offset is going to be same, it will pushing out that wheel too after that??
where is the problem?? Or is the problem that I need to lower car and then wheel is going to flush fit better? or is there some differences about axle width with JDM versus US lexus??
And of course it is possible to order those new wheels with higher offsets and after that use spacers to make fitment perfect but I would rather take perfectly fitting wheels when ordering new ones.

The Work Kiwami I bought brand new last year was this spec:
Front: 18x8.5 38 offset
Rear: 18x9.5 38 offset
