I bought the MB battles in 17x9.5 +15, but I won't put them on until spring. Look at this link,https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sea...archid=2429387 this owner has 18x10 +22 all around. No pull, but he did roll the fenders. After using the http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp offset calculator the MB's will stick out 1mm more than the rims posted in the link. You will have to roll all the fenders and run a 225 or 235 in the front.

Rims
I got a 97 SC300. I'm looking through all the posts, and not sure of totally what to do. Go with a 18" or 19". I'm thinking bout going with Work Emotion XD9 rims. They only go to 18", and i plan on getting the JIC Kit eventually, but rims first. Don't really wanna roll my fenders if i don't have too. Any suggestions?
