Default Questions

Okay so I've got a 2004 is300 im running a 1 inch drop and about to throw some rims on it. I'm wanting to go with 18x9.5 +23 mb battles all around. Im a grade that they will either stick out way to far in the front or il have to do a lot more fender work. Atm the fenders are rolled flat that's about it
What are your opinions ??

Those are pretty aggressive for an IS300 and these will stick out quite a bit; at least 1/2 an inch all the way around. I dont know how much you'll like the look. To pull it off these wheels you will need to go lower and pull your fenders.

Hi all, this is my first post. I moved over from Honda/Acura to Toyota/Lexus. So far so good. I'm horrible at fitting wheels and hoping I can get some help. I have a 93 SC400 completely stock. I'm looking to purchase a set of GS rims with tires that are 235/45/18 with +45 offset. The width of the rim is 8.

Will this work for my SC400?

Default Freshly tinted windows and new wheels!

I went for more of a classic, refined look, plus I got a hell of a deal on these wheels and I think they look fantastic. I would like to lower her a few inches but this is my only car and I need her to get around in the snow so i can't really lower her right now. Maybe, eventually, I'll get coilovers. For right now though, she's sitting on 16" wheels with 4 blizzaks to get me through the winter in one piece. Love it!

I finally tried on my Weds Kranz ERM in the back. 18x11 -10. I enjoy it greatly. Just in time for the snow.

Talking Need some insight people

So about a few weeks ago I got me some 18x9.5 +15 MB wheels for my 99 SC300, just what a wanted looks great. My rear passager side scrubs alot when driving around town, I'm on OEM suspension due to the fact I live in VA, but I do plan on coilovers as soon as I leave this area.

My question is has any done 18x9.5 +15, and not needed there fenders rolled, I'm thinking my suspension maybe shot in the rear I have 180K on my SC. O FYI I'm streched on my tires so this is not a problem..........

Any INSIGHT people thanks

Ok fellow members I need some input here. Im looking to get a set of WedsSport SA10.. I looking for a flush look but a little poke is ok. The sizing im back and forth with is 18x10.5 +12 or 18x10.5 +25?
I know that I will need to roll the fenders.I got megan coilovers sitting in the garage. Also what tire sizes would you run. I wanted 225/40/18.

I would go for the +12 and 235/40 if you want a little poke. You will have to roll your fenders completely flat

Thanks for the advise. I didnt up getting the Weds. I got a set of ESR Work Vsxx reps. 18x10 +25 with 225/40/18 and 245/40/18's. I rather save the bulk of the money for a swap.
