hey guys, i'm looking into a set of

19x9 +20mm wheels, planning to use 235 35 up front, and 245 35 in rear, and i had a couple questions.


1.How is the fitment going to be in the front? Any fender rolling?
2.Will it clear TT calipers up front?

Thanks in advance.

Noob here, just got my SC300 yesterday.

Planning to pic up a set of wheels from a member on here and just wondering if they would fit flush on my sc300 w/o spacers?

Specs:
18x8 +38 F 215/35-18
18x9 +38 R 225/40-18

If spacer are needed what size would you recommend?

they will definitely not fit flush...

you would need like 1" spacers, maybe more...

Looking at some rims, would 19x9+33 and 19x10+26 fit flush with some rolling? Im not to familiar on how offset size sits. I think its from the hub mount out to lip?

Not sure yet, Im looking at some Work REXZA without tires and I wanted to know if they fit before purchasing them. But now that you mentioned that I'm going to need spacers I'm having second thoughts..

Has anyone tried putting Lexus G-Spider wheels on their SC400? I found a good deal on some G-Spider wheels from an SC430 owner. The tire size is 245/40r18 and I think the offset on the wheels is 45. Anything know the wheel width on a g-spider sc430 wheel? I think they are 18x8 but they could be 18x8.5 or 18x9.

Will these fit and has anyone seen this done before because nothing is turning up on google.

Thought I'd add the new setup in here:





WORK Meister S1 3-piece 19x9.5 +23 and 19x10.5 +24
Toyo Proxes T1R 235/35-19 and 275/30-19

Some camber, rolled with a slight pull all around
