Wow, thats a pretty crazy offset. I would have to say you are going to have STRETCH the tires for sure and run a negative camber and cut the fenders to fit those. I got a buddy of mine with offsets close to those and he had to do all that. If your willing to go the mile and pull and cut the fenders then yea but Im not about cutting into my Lexus lol. But I bet it would look great when done right. Mv350 will prob be able to shed a better opinion on your setup. He is the man to ask for sure.

the specs are
20x9 +21 f
20x10 +29 R

Thanks for any help

front will probably rub a little if you dont remove(not hammer) remove the bumper tab if your low enough. but you will need a slight pull in the back and a slight pull up front, run 235/40. up front run a 215/40.

this setup is aggressive and tires are stretched aggressively so i do not advise anyone to run this setup unless you are expierenced on running stretched tires and hellaflush. this will F*** your car up if your not careful. trust me i know

Hey guys quick question. I know 5x112 wheels will it on 5x114.3 but is it safe? I know that if you just bolt the wheels on it's not exactly centered, but what if you run the correct hubrings? I've searched around and some say it's safe and some say it's not.

Hi all,

Just wondering as to whether the following is a decent setup:

Front: 19x8.5 - 45 offset - 235/35/19
Rear: 19x9.5 Rear - 45 offset - 265/30/19

From what I've read through this thread, I *think* this combo should work?

You can do +45 all the way around but +38 would be better
