Looks like they only have one offset to choose from for 19s. You'll be fine with the 30. Tire size will depend on how low you are. If you're not lowered or on springs then don't worry.

before you buy these rims decide on your drop and tire sizes.

i would get +35F and +38R...8.5F/9.5R people usually use 235/35/19F and 265/35/19R or 275/35/19R or 275/30/19r depends on how low your car is

They have many offset for MONOBLOCK 1/16 (The model that have only one offset was M7)

For 19" 8.5 They have +40 , +45 , +48
For 19" 9.5 They have +45 , +50

I decide to lowering with F-Sport Spring (1" down for Front and Rear)

One of my friend recommend LX M7-2

F : 19" 8.5J with 225/35 R19
R : 19" 9.5J with 275/30 R19

Is this will fit the IS250 RWD with lowering 1" front and rear?

For 19" 8.5J which offset is suitable between +38 or +48?
For 19" 9.5J they available only +50

+38 is fine for the 19x8.5 for the fronts, I would go with at least a 235/35 though. It'll fit fine with a 1" drop

Thank for your comment. But anyway I may order MONOBLOCK 1/16 because M7-2 is too expensive.

Could you recommend which offset and tyre are suitable for IS250 with 1" lowering

F : 19 x 8.5J +40 , +45 , +48
R : 19 x 9.5J +45 , +50
