Will this wheel fit ?
Just wondering if anyone has this set up:
18x9 + 35, 5x114.3
with
255/45/18
I feel like this might rub... any thoughts?

You should be fine. Thats not an aggressive fitment. Is your car lowered?

Welcome to Club Lexus.
That is a pretty conservative fitment and should not pose any rubbing issues.

No, its stock, but i feel like the 9inch wide with 35mm offset might be close to the calipers?

Just going to have to test fit. If the fronts rubs a little a 10 or 15 mm hub centric spacer will fix that.

Thanks!
From the wheel offset calculator
http://www.1010tires.com/Tools/Wheel...ulator#Results
i get Results
Inner Clearance: 9mm LESS (the inside of the wheel to the strut housing)
Outer Position: EXTEND an extra 29mm (position of the outside edge of the wheel)
I think the offset is a bit low, what do you guys think?

Rim width and offset have nothing to do with possible caliper clearance issues, that's what's called disk height.
You'll have to test fit them to be sure unless you know the rims are a high disk type.

I don't see an issue with that, I have 20x9.5/10.5 set up and stock height they don't rub.

+1 19's on up are rarely an issue. 18's on the other had can be.

I probably would go with 245's or even 235's up front. 255's might rub.
Other than that as long as they clear the brakes you should be alright.
