Im looking at Avant Garde M310s in hyper silver to fit on my is350. The specs on the front wheel are 19x9.5, bolt pattern 5x114.3 with a 20 or 25mm offset. The rear wheels specs are 19x11 with a 5x114.3 bolt pattern and an offset of 18mm. the website says these wheels wont fit. what would i have to do to get these to fit without rubbing.

depends on your ride height.

but yes, it will require fender rolling and modding the fender tabs. front fender tab bolt will need to go, while the rear will need to be shaved down.

215/35-19 + 245/35-19 is the widest tire sizes you can run.

fronts will require a roll and a light pull, along with removal of the fender tab bolts. fender tabs will need to be removed. 225/35-19.

rear will require a solid roll and a pull. shave the fender tabs down. 255/35-19.

and after all of that, you still might rub.

So the reason they would rub and require fender roll is because the wheels are wide correct? or is it an offset issue that I could fix with spacers. thanks, sorry im new on this.

partially correct.

the reasons you will have clearance issues are because the wheels are wide, have low offset, AND require running stretched tires.

btw, rules of thumb regarding offset:
** lower offsets = wheels stick out
** higher offsets = wheels sink in

and by running spacers, you are effectively lowering your offsets even more than they already are.

Here is the wheel info just to make sure I didnt give wrong facts. so a +18mm offset is to low? it needs a higher offset such as a 35 or 40mm? which cannot be done by spacers because it would make the offset even lower sticking the wheels out more bringing them closer to the fender. did i get that right?

actually, 19x11 +18 will stick out very far past the fender edge.

the rigid rules and regulations is a great way to get fake wheels off the street. unfortunately, we don't have any of that here, but i digress.

we have more then enough fake rims that are legal, mostly le mans fakes for VW bolt pattern *lol* for us, usa is like a car paradise.
sorry for the off topic.

thanks for your answer, again

if you don't want to roll your fenders, you might want to go with something with slightly higher offsets.

correction.

you can make them work.

just depends on how far you're willing to go to make them work, and how much functionality you're willing to compromise.

spacers would effectively decrease offset and push the wheels out even farther. you don't want that given the wheel specs you were inquiring about.
