THANK YOU.

+32 front might not clear brakes if you have an is350. 235/35/19 might rub a lil depending on the tire sidewall and how low you take it. Some run this tire no issues and some have rubbing. I'm no fitment guru just posted from what I've read here as well. I had +35 up front and it barely cleared my brakes... but then I see others here with insane setups.

What is the front wheel width?

I got them on my car with no issues whatsoever. 19x8.5 +32 front and 19x10+42 rears. Tires are 235/35/19 F and 265x30x19 R. Hope this helps.

I like the CVT's a lot but my friend who has them says there's a lot of rubbing that goes on. Have you had a look at the Niche Milan? They look like the Vossen CV3's.

It would be a 235/35/19...most like pilot super sports..would hate to buy them and not fit but don't see any other options in this wheel as far as offsets are concerned.

Thank you bro....how low are you and is yours a 350?? can't stand any wheel gap on my car so if these don't work I guess I will settle for others...weird that our options are this limited as far as offset is concerned.

Wheel meaning 19x8.5, 19x9, 19x9.5 with those tire specs that you listed but ISPearl08 posted his without any issues clearing the brakes.

If I did 19s all over again I would do 19x9.5 F and 19x10.5 R Great looking wheel selection though.

Oh..sorry bud...they only come in 19 x 8.5 and 19x10 in the Vossen. ..however I am not one to stretch tires and don't want rim lips exposed. .don't think I will be doing the 10 on back based on a 275 would be on edge of 10 inch rim and my car has to be no gap lowered. .

I have Swift springs on mine which lower it only about an inch all around. I didn't want to go too crazy cause of crappy roads in my area and wanted to keep drive comfort close to factory which it is. I'm happy with them. And yes I have a 350. It does in fact suck about the wheel options. Took me a while before I settled on this one.

Thanks for the info bud, ended up going with Vertini Dynasty's with 8.5 front and 9.5 back so with a 35mm front offset and 40mm rear....I definitely don't want to stretch the rubber on the rims...don't like rims exposed and figure this setup should work....will still probably have to roll fenders I believe with how low it is on the BCRs.

My pleasure! I'm glad I was able to help some. Congrats on the new wheels.
