and you'll want to go w/ 225/35-19 + 255/35-19.
I figured they'd be narrow, just seeing if that would affect performance. They're coming with 99% tread, so I didnt know if I'd be okay running them until it was time to replace them

Thank you for your help, if I'm ever out west, 1st round on me

19x9.5 +19. I am currently rolled and tucking tires. How would I be to make these fit? I am planning on relocating the tab and running 225/35 with spc ball joint. Able?

Will 19x9 +25 and 19x10 +0 fit on my is350? Currently tucking factory 18's. Fenders rolled all around. Plan on running a stretched tire as well. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

I'm new to the forums and currently have a 2012 is350 on order. I was looking to upgrade the wheels to Vossen 083 19"

19x8.5 +32 235/35R19
19x10 +38 265/35R19 or 275/35R19

Based on tire calcs. 275's would be 0.9" closer to fender and 265's would be 0.7" closer.

Would the 275's works on the car lowering the rear about 0.5" to 1"? Also lowering the front about an 1" to 1.5". Would all this work with no rubbing or fender mods? I really like wide beefy tires, front to have a tuck and rears somewhat flush.

Thanks

19x9 +25, maybe, with a very light pull.

19x10 +0, not without a considerable amount of work.

fronts only, rears only, or all around?

1. 18x8 +45, 18x8.5 +50.
2. fender/tire clearance will be close.

the IS-F has different fitment requirements than the ISx50's.

unfortunately, no, i don't. maybe someone in the IS-F subsection can provide more help.

i don't think you'll need the SPC ball joint unless you don't want to run camber.

otherwise, you have everything else spot-on.

Hoping someone can help me out with this easy question. I'm looking for a winter wheel/tire set, and this set caught my eye: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/whe...e-package.html

The seller used this set on his IS-F. I have a 2007 IS350. If this wheel set fit an IS-F bolt pattern AND it cleared the IS-F front brakes, can I be assured it will fit my IS350 or will there be other considerations to take into account? I assume the main issue is brake clearance and I assume the IS-F brakes are bigger (or stick out more) than the 350's, so I'd be fine.

Thanks for your help, I've never purchased/installed an aftermarket wheel/tire set.

yes, it's possible.

what offset the wheels should have depends on how (un)willing you are to fender modifications. the lower the offset, the more work you'll need.

as such, you'll have to specify what you're willing to do to make the wheels fit.

front is fine. rear needs fender work. just as long as you're not running odd sizes.

should fit without the need for spacers - if they clear IS-F calipers, they should clear the IS350 calipers as well.

rear tire size is slightly off for the 2is, but if they're just for seasonal use purposes i don't see anything wrong with that.
