Widest wheel/tire combo for IS-F?
hey guys, thinking of getting an IS-F. What is the widest wheel combo you guys have seen for a 19" wheel? I'd like to get to a a 295 for rears, but is this even possible?

I copy and pasted the below statement from the link above.
"I can tell you that a 19x9 with a 45mm offset will not rub on the front running a 255/35-19. On the rear, 19x10.5 with a 60mm offset will not rub with 295/30-19. Some people prefer a tire with a little more meat on the sidewall. Anything below 3% is acceptable on the IS-F.

awesome, thanks! I love the IS-F but I keep scratching my head as to why they'd put that much mojo with such little rubber to the pavement
It really needs a wider stance IMO.
I'm coming from a 977 with less horsepower but 11" wheel width.
Any aftermarket wheel recommendations ISF? or the usual suspects (HRE)

That depends on the use and tire set-up. Below is a quick referrance guide you can use.
FRONT
WHEEL WIDTH OFFSETS WIDTH OF TIRE
7.0 +16/+65 225
7.5 +22/+65 225/235
8.0 +29/+59 225/235/245
8.5 +35/+52 235/245/255
9.0 +41/+46 245/255/265
REAR
WHEEL WIDTH OFFSETS WIDTH OF TIRE
8.0 +26/+65 225/235/245

10.0 +52/+65 265/275/285
10.5 +58/+60 275/285/295
**USING WHEEL WITH OFFSETS HIGHER OR LOWER THAN SEEN
ABOVE COULD CAUSE INTERFERENCE WITH THE FENDERWELL
OR SUSPENSION COMPONENTS.

I'm looking at 19x9, 19x10 with +43, +45 offset. Wearing 275/35 in the rear, does the chart suggest it would rub the fender?
Thanks!

I guess no one remembers what D2 has been doing since 2008 when the F came out:
D2FORGED 20x9.5 Front and 20x11 Rear 295/25/20
D2FORGED 20x9.5 Front and 20x11 Rear 295/25/20
D2FORGED 20x9 Front and 20x10.5 Rear 295/25/20
To answer the question, with the right wheels you can run a 295 tire in the rear, without an issue.
