Searched and couldn't find an answer or rims with this size/offset so I'm asking. Local guy has a set for sale for decent price: 18x9.5 +12 wrapped in 265/35-18. I pretty sure its a no go with the +12 offset. But am curious if they will work with stock suspension? I am currently running 20" rims with stretched tires(size is 275/30 ZR20 97W) in the rear, don't know the exact offset of current rims but I know the previous owner of my car did a little inside fender work, not sure what exactly.
Thanks!
I ran reverse-mounted BBS LM 18x9 +20 to +22 (I forgot) with 255/40/R18 & stock suspension. The tire and rim poked out. I was scraping on the fender for the entire week. Every dip in the freeway and every turn up a driveway I could hear my tire scraping/rubbing in the back. Definitely don't recommend, I switched the face mount and now it's about +32 to +35 and I'm a lot happier to drive my car.

You'd be right about that. The 9.5 is too wide for the front and with that much of a negative offset, it wouldnt be just the inner well you'd be worrying about. The rear might be okay but I still think even there the offset is too great. The suspension will be fine but you'll need to roll the fenders.

It was actually 18x8 front and 18x9 in the rear. The rear was getting chewed up. I have a circle around my tire where it was digging in.
Will these be alright on a 2IS350? will the 18's clear the factory caliper? I currently have stock suspension but may lower in the future. Currently I have 20's that the previous owner put on with stretched tires and I don't like the way it rides or how easy the back breaks loose.
Looking for new 19's for my 06 RWD IS250.
Fell in love with Work Emotion CR 2P's. Good thing about these is you can order them in almost any size.
What I would like is a tire/rim setup that sits nice and fitted. Like rim-face almost flush with the fender.
What I don't want is crazy stretch, extreme camber or crazy archwork (no problem to flatten the inner lip of the fender, don't want to pull the fenders).
To give you an example of what I have in mind, this was the fitment on my Honda a few years ago (16 by 8's wrapped in 215/40/16):
For my IS250 I am thinking about:
Front: 19x8.5 with 225/35/19 offset: ???
Rear: 19x10 with 265/30/19 or maybe even 19x10.5 with 275/30/19 offset: ???
I might go 1 tire size narrower for a tiny bit more stretch. However I want to keep the stretch equal front and back.
Will these sizes fit an IS250 without crazy archwork?
Should I take 19x10's or 19x10.5's in the back?
What offsets should I take to get them to fit nicely?
You'll be pretty flush. I have +35 all around with the same specs and I'm flush. As for rubbing, it's not a big deal. the front only rubs the plastic liner on full lock turns and the rear rubs on big dips if I'm going 45+ mph.

This is with 19×8.5 et42 front and 19×9.5 et42 rear. There will be no rubbing and is very flush
