Trimmed 1/4" off the rear fender lip. Still had some rubbing on extreme bumps so I moved my 15mm spacer from the front and put a 12mm spacer on the front. No rubbing at all in the back now. So with my current setup I'm running 19x8.5 +31 on the front with 235/35/19 and 19x9 +30 on the rear with 255/35/19. I could have lived with a little rubbing in the back, but I didn't want to chance cutting a tire with my kids in the car. Next thing to do is drop it with H&R springs, but I'm extremely happy with my stance right now.

I bought plain chrome center caps off of ebay and they fit perfect. I'm going to modify them with a Lexus logo when I get a chance.

If anyone is planning on doing this, make sure you get hubcentric spacers. I was shaking like crazy at highway speeds before I put them on. Got the aluminum ones from 1010tire.com for $34. Smooth as glass now.

R: 19x9, +45 (with 20mm spacer +25) 245/40/19

I will get some better pictures after I clean it up.

IMHO, the less spokes the better the look!
