I don't believe I am running neg. Last time i had an alignment was a month ago and that was with is300 rims with 225/50's on them so an extra 1.5 inch has been added with the 19's. Getting another alignment soon just to make sure.
The Tanabe's lowered about an inch in the rear, i could barely put my finger in between the tire and the finder, so I was rubbing like hell with the smallest of bumps . Bat rolled the rear fenders and no more rubbing.
Stock hight I bet you could get away with it, but I don't think so with the Tanabe's or lower.

Help please?
Hi.
I'm kind of new to this forum..but I was wondering if someone could help me. I have a 92 SC300, and I was wondering if the rims from an 05 GS300 would fit my car..
The person i'm buying from thinks the bolt pattern is 5x115..but I'm pretty sure he's wrong because I researched and the 05 GS300 bolt pattern is 5x114.
These are 17 inch rims..supposedly.
Anyone?
Idk how to add pictures but hopefully this works:

the 18x10.5+22 will need a slight pull. I just took of my Works that were 18x9.5+19 and 18x10.5+19 with 235/40 and 255/40. All four corners were rolled and I had like a 5mm pull in the rear and only had credit card clearance in the rear. But there was no rubbing or anything

I don't think a roll will be enough. I ran 18 x 10.5 et 25 with 275/35's on aggressively cut fenders lowered to no finger gap, no rubbing whatsoever. I think if I ran a et 22, I would have ran into rubbing issues. All these numbers are on paper though, I had enough natural camber to clear the fenders. Only had the wheels for 2 - 3 months, never had the chance to get it aligned.

Yes but you may have to have extra camber or have to roll the Edge of the fender lip back a little Front and rear. Aslso your tire size plays a major factor. Id say you can go as wide as a 255 40 and probably not roll the fender in the back but up front you will want a 225-245 40 just for tractions sake you may have ot roll the fender regardless. Do you have coilovers?
