of course not, those that shared their spec is how i was able to get this fitment. +25 front and +35 rear.

little to no rub in the front and same for the rear, but the lip of the fender at time do kiss the tip of the tires when hitting hard corners. I was surprise myself because when i originally ordered these wheels, i was planning to order camber/toe links, but after a few PM's exchange to CalitriSC, he confirmed that there is no need. Big Thanks to CalitriSC

At this current set up, i'm loving the fitment. While my car was sitting in the garage waiting for the new wheels, i decided to get my roof wrap along with a new black roof spoiler to match the wrap. Also i finally got time to also install the Figs LCA bushing which will hopefully save my new tires from crazy camber wear. Enough said, enjoy the pics.. Negative and Positive comments are welcome.. Also, im no pro in taking pics.

















thats fresh as ****! Where can i get a Club Lexus Decal like yours?

Here:


And why did you ruin a performance car I guess I don't understand what "fresh" is. Stickers and window trim? Or ruined suspension and ****ty tires? If it is just stickers and window trim, raise the ride height and sign up for some performance driving school. You may need to adjust your seating position too, but then you will understand what the car was built for.

Yes, those "my offsets are secret" types annoy the **** out of me. It's not like you're giving away a competitive advantage by sharing the offsets of your wheels. Way to be adult about it.

Under the theme of sharing, what tire sizes are you running on those rears? I'm looking to upgrade from my stock 255/35/19s in the rear, and my wheels are 19x9.5 +29. I have a mild roll to the rear fenders and the rear is at the stock height. I am looking to get something just a little bit wider but don't want to rub. Seriously, the fitment and stance on your setup is perfect for my tastes. Low but not slammed, flush but no poke, and functional.

... My tires in the rear is 265 30 19, im sure you might be able to go wider with your spec and ride height. My fender is mild roll also.
