Running Supra Eibach spring setup.

Thoughts? Just a roll or should I go with a different tire size?
go ahead and answer my own question since I recently test fitted them..

Front: 19x8.5 +15 / Tire Size: 245/35/19
(very flush to a very minimal poke)

Fender modification: a roll and pull with no adjustments to camber

Rears: 19x10 +20 / Tire Size: 275/30/19
(these poke)

Fender modification: a pull with no adjustments to camber (will roll to be on the safe side)

Also remember, I am running Supra eibach springs so the drop isn't terrible. With that rear size tire, I have plenty of clearance. I am debating on running a 255/35 tire for when I go lower.

Looking for a Clean Slammed SC to mount ISS wheels on, photoshoot and possible print media coverage. We were contacted to set this car up and need our friends to help!

Anyone in South Florida?

Trying to buy some wheels today, some Linea Corse Lemans, and I was wondering would a 18x9.5 with an offset of 30 all around fit on my sc300. My car is lowered with espilirs and has the 97 body kit. I dont want to run a negative camber or go through tires every couple of months. I just dont want to be too conservative or too aggressive. So please let me know as soon as you can. Thanks.

mb battles
18x9.5 +15 all round
225/40/18 all around
needs probably 10mm spacers in the rear and 5mm in the front for a complete flushness

alright... rolled the front fenders and the wheels clear perfectly. Had to remove part of the splash shield... The rears, I rolled, but the offset and tire size a bit aggressive and very minor rub. All this can be corrected with a little negative camber and golden..

My sc is lowered on tein superstreet coilovers and i have it pretty low.im riding on a set of 18inch Lowenharts.I had to get new tires for the rear so i went kinda crazy and got a set of Falken Azenis RT-615 which is a awesome tire if you have seen it before and i went up in sizes from what was already on there.It had a 275/40/18 i went up to a 295/40/18.well lets just say it looks sooo mean on the car!!Im so happy with how they look but they are rubing really bad with just normal driving. So i am going to get my rear fenders rolled tom and i hope that fixes the problem because i dont want to have to raise the rear of the car back up.So if anybody is looking to get new rear tires for your SC i say get a set of Falken Azeis RT-615 in a 295/40/?? and you will be very happy and once i get a chance to see how they work on the track i will repost and let you know how they did!!

^, It's highly recommended to size tires as closet to the factory overall diameter as possible. 275/35/18's or 295/30/18 - 295/35/18.

Your rubbing issue may just be the overall diameter being a bit too large.

I think the fitment at the front will be too aggresive, even the rears will be a little aggresive and you will need to run negative camber and stretched tires.
