Wheels size advice
Howzit,
There's someone selling 19" Work Euroline S2H wheels on the island but I don't know if it will fit my '98 GS 300. Fronts are 19 X 9 + 26 & rear are 19 X 10 + 26. Wheels are off a G35.
Please let me know if it'll fit without mods to the fenders.
Mahalo!

you'll need minor fender mod e.g. removing the plastic black trims on the fenders, and either shaving them down a bit or rolling them a bit. 2GS fenders cant be rolled very much as they dimple, but you can roll them enough to fit those if you dont want to shave.
tyre wise i'd say go with 225/35 or 235/35 front & 245/35 rear. Camber wise up back if you just roll as much as possible before dimples and run 245/35 you will want around -2.5ish to clear. Front probably around -2 depending on how much you roll or if you decide to go 225/35 or 235/35.

you dont need to get RCAs if you arent going to run really low. i am tucking tire front and rear, probably sitting about 100mm from the ground to my bodywork (so exahust etc is lower) and i have no RCAs and -2.5 camber all round. with toe set up okay, my tires are lasting fine (~1yr of daily driving so far). So you dont have to get them esp if you arent going that low cause you wont end up with as much 'natural' camber.
that said, if you go run only like -1 camber and not that much stretch, you will def need to shave your guards down.

Hey man...I looked at pictures of your car, it's really nice! Do you have problems scraping the front while going up driveways or tire rubbing while driving? Your car is low. Not sure if I'll go as low but yours looks good.
