Default Help with Work VS-XX fitment

Hey guys I hate my first post to be a stupid one but I just received my 2010 IS350. I want to order some VS-XX's and I have been searching forever on this site and on others for the perfect fitment but it seems impossible as everyone says something different.

I am looking for the most flush fitment possible with out rolling fenders. Does anyone have any experience with these wheels or offsets and widths that can achieve this??

Thanks in advance and I apologize for asking a question that I am sure has been asked before.

Chad

19x9+28 fronts and 19x10.5+26 rears should work with these wheels.. hmmm i would suggest getting steplips tho.. Theirs other threads on here you can browse around for btw.

^^^ You think he can fit that without fender rolling? (I'm assuming that the OP is going to drop the car, though)

Thanks guys, ya the car will be dropped and definitely no fender rolling. I was thinking

F 19x8.5 +29
R 19x9.5 +29 or 19x10 +36

For tires I was looking at maybe 225/35 in front and 265/30 rear??

Or is that pushing it?? Let me know your thoughts

Phil there is no step lip with the VS-XX. OP I hope you're not going for a flush look with those sizes cause that's pretty weak. Do at least a 19x9.5 +34 235 and 19x10.5 +40 275 since you're not rolling fenders.

i just ordered a set. 19x9 +32 and 19x10.5 +34 i think. these will probably be pretty flush but my fenders are rolled so i can't really tell you if it'll rub or not. it really depends how low you're going to be but any of the above specs given will be pretty flush.
