Default Sport Edition F10

'08 IS350 w/ stock suspension. Will need a cheap set of wheels to put winter tires on; will these fit safely? They're 40 offset in front and back; should be ok in front but am I pushing it in the rear? Also, if I go F-Sport suspension in future, will they still be ok?

you'll be fine. just make sure they clear the IS350 front brake calipers.

if you don't do fender mods and run the right tire sizes, yes, you will.

it's recommended. you really can't run anything narrower without it being unsafe.

fyi, you can minimize rubbing, but you can't eliminate it outright.

225/35-19 + 255/35-19 for max clearance

235/35-19 + 275/30-19 for max treadwidth.

i would recommend 245/30-19 in the front, but that would be really pushing it.

not without more fender work than what you were looking at originally.

hello fellow member,


Planing on buying new set of wheel for my is250 RWD. Neither a set of 18x8 and 18x9 with 38 offset all around. Would this fit perfectly without any fender modding ? best tires setup ?

or my second though is Varrstoen es1.1.2 19x9 +22 and 19x11 +25. How much fender modding i need to run this setup ? with best tires setup ?

Will be drop on megan coil

Please help a newbie like me lol thanks in advance

Would i be better off not going for such an aggressive wheel? Whats the biggest/widest you can go with a properly fitted tyre with no streatch in the side wall?

yes, those will fit without fender modding. just re-use your oem 18" tires (225/40-18 + 255/40-18).

you'll need to roll your fenders flat + natural pull, shave rear fender tabs, remove front fender bolt and bend the fender tab out of the way.

those aren't "stretch" sizes. you'll be safely within limits.

thanks for helping me out. I am probably going to settle for 18" for now and reuse my tires. Too much rendering modding for me. Haven't find a place near home to do the fender modding lol
