tucked in a little but should not rub stock body with no mods if you stretch that rear tire down to a 245/40

Default IS350 with 18x7.5 front

I ran into a good deal for two 18x8.5 33+ Gram Lights T57RC and intended to put them in the front but I got trouble to find another two 18x9.5 to put in rear. So I was thinking to put the two that I have in rear and get two 18x7.5 which I could find to the front, they have 48+ offset. Will they fit? Is that a jay or nay?

Don't even buy it dude. Waste of money. Wait till you find a complete set and be happy with it instead of making them work and probably risking not even being happy in the end.

I agree with iSuxel...just be patient and find EXACTLY what your looking for. 9/10 times people end up regretting what they bought if they had to go through alot to MAKE it work.

Got a question for the gurus

I have 19x9 +25 fronts on 225/35/19 and 19x10 +25 rears on 245/35/19's.

My question is, would 215/35/19 (F) & 225/35/19 (R) be too much of a stretch? is it more towards the unsafe side?

Be like me, shop shop shop. Not only will you end up finding exactly what you want but also at the price you want. That's my Chinese side btw

hey guys would these wheel specs fit for is350?

19x8.5 +30
19x10 +10
?

fender mods (fender liner upwards and bending of the metal tab for the front, and cutting of the rear fender)

lastly what about the tire size for front and rear? 2x5/35/19

------
Edit lol got the answer I was looking
