Hey guys, Im in the market for getting some new wheels for my 95. I wanted to double check fitment with you guys here before I went out and spent money. The wheels I am interested in are 18x9.5, here are my questions
1. Will that fit all around?
2. If i get a 35 offset will I need a fender tuck? If so what is the lowest offset I can go WITHOUT needing a fender tuck?

Still looking for some nice wheels on my black onyx -97 SC400.
Can anyone help me out ?
Give me some choices maybe.
Love the Work VS-XX, but need some more info on fitments before I can buy them.
What does A disk, O disk or R disk mean?
I want 19"x8,5" with 235/35-19 tires in the front.
In the back 19"x ??
Is 19"x9,5" too wide for 245/35-19" ? Should I get 265 ?
Would love to see some lip, but not planning to roll fenders, can get some spacers later if I roll them.
So what offset should the VS-XX wheel be and what disk ?
Wheels and tires should not rub and can't stick out from the body(can't register in Finland).
Also planning on a set of coilovers, any tips on what to get so I can adjust the offset for the new wheels ?
Someone give me some good data and I promise I'll post some nice pics after I got my new wheel to replace the original 16" crome ones :P

Hey guys,
I just got my sc and am looking for a set of rims. Im looking at getting bbs lm reps in gold with polished step lip.
I need advice... Do you guys think I should go staggered or go same all around. These are my choices below. Can you let me know if they will work find an look good or will it be too aggressive. I will be rolling fenders but would like to avoid pulling.
1 = 19x10 20et rear, 19x8.5 15et front. ( staggered ) tires will have mild stretch
2 = 19x10 20et front and rear. (same all around) 235/35/19 tires all around
Which combinations you guys like better. Also can you let me know if both choices will be fine and not cause too many issues? Will the front 19.85 15 offset in the staggered setup look decent? Or will it stick out too much or not enough? What size lip would that offset on a 8.5 be?
Thanks in advance!...

I'm pretty sure this has probably been covered somewhere in this thread before but this things i just absolutely huge and I didn't want to read all 150+ pages in hopes of finding it so I thought I'd just ask
I really want to get bigger wheels for my SC and I like the black TRD wheels from the Scion TC but they're all 18x7.5 I was wondering if those would work for the SC or if they would look too thin?
