Default Calling all offset gurus

Can someone please tell me if +35mm offsets will work on a '98 GS400 without doing any fender mods, and if so how will it look? Rims are 18x8.5 & 18x9.5, and yes I've searched past posts and can't find info on this praticular offset. Tires are 245/40 and 275/35, thanks for any help, Chris.

You will be fine.......that is the same set-up i had with my old 18's. I will suggest lowering the car as well.

both front and rear +35 offset? front would be fine, rear is close, you might need to shave the fender lip a bit but very easy

Thanks for the help guys. I hate to highjack my own thread but AZ have you seen my post in the Southwest forum? Any ideas, or did you do your own mods too? Thanks, Chris.
