being worried about fitting wide tires, those are very appropriate widths and offsets.
You can't fit much wider tires than that under stock rolled fenders (275/315 is the highest I have ever seen). https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=275393

How much clearance does the inside of the wheel to the strut housing have on stock wheels. Ive read almost through the whole fitment and tire guide and I didnt see anyone posting how much more room we have before you get too close to the struts. So im curious how much more can u go inwards on teh front and rears before you start rubbing the shocks in the rear or the fenderliner in the front?

I know that in the rear with my setup (19x11.5+29 with 285/30) I have 5mm clearance between the strut and wheel (like a stock tt wheel) when the car is jacked up. I would like to know if switching to coilovers will give me more clearance for a widier wheel because I would love to ditch these for some 19x12.5+38ish w/305/25s s

youll need an extra inch of clearance on the inside. that could be achieved with a skinny coilover. dunno if a 305 will fit

HI, long time follower... first time post (noob).
Ive been reading through this forum trying to get some insight on some wheel fitments for my SC but still confused. I currently have 18x7.5 all around and i have a super great deal on some 19X8.5 i want to put on.
I recently dumped the eiback pro kit springs and tokiko shocks and reverted my suspension back to stock and was wondering if this wheel size will fit without any mods (fender rolls) camber etc.. Also if you can recommend a tire size that would be a great help. I want the ride to be comfortable but also aggresive looking. I do have stock coils installed so there is no drop from the springs. THAnX again.

Thanx for the quick reply.
As for offsets (again im a noob) whats a recommendation on this stock setup or does it have entirely to do with the actual wheel? i do know my current wheels have spacers and they are pretty much flush.
