Default Need help - RC wheels to 2011 IS 250C?
Currently have a 2011 IS 250C with standard OEM 225/40R18 (8x18 wheels with 45 offset) fronts and 255/40R18 (8.5x18 with 50 offset) rears. Love the looks of the RC wheels, but have no experience or knowledge on swapping wheels. What issues or considerations should I take with changing my wheels to stock RC 265/35R19 (19x8 with 45 offset) fronts, and 235/40R19 (19x9 with 60 offset) wheels and tires? Are there spacers I should use?

I shopped RC wheels for a while

ended up with 19s. I have BBS OEM ISF wheels on mine. No spacers. Running 235/255

I'm planing on getting the 19" Samurai blade IS F rims. Are you happy with your stance without lowering the car first?
