Default will this fit an SC...

18x8 offset +42 front and 18X9.5 offset +48. Tires are kinda slim at 225/40 up front and 255/35 in back. Will this set up fit an sc300? thanks

it should be fine... Front tires are undersized as Will stated... You may want to consider going 235's at least on the front. I had 225 all around on 18x8.5 rims. I peeled out alot. I ended up getting 245's in the front and 265's in the rear.


The pic, I have 225's in the front and 265's in the rear.

I got mines from Longo Toyota. With the entire assembly, it was about $450 for both.... I think I paid too much.

$400 or so..

Install was easy for me... Some people say that they need to shave the holes wider, I didn't have that problem though.

Default thanks for the help...

yeah I know the tires are small but they are used wheels and the tires come with. By the way the rears are 265 and not 255 so a little better. But the front are a little small at 8 with 225. Thanks
