Once I get the wheels in and start fitting them, pictures will come lol. Im still trying to convince myself not to attempt to pull the rear but we'll see what I end up doing, I wanna pull it 6mm but worried about the qtr panels starting to split. I might just do it and if it splits, bite the bullet and get some metal work done.
The picture bellow is my 2gs on 235/40 on an 11. Never had an issues with the coming off the bead, daily drove it for 2 years with that stretch.

Here's a tease on what Tony "the fender roller" did to my ride to clear 19x10.5 +22 w/ a 255/35/19. Keep in mind I'm using factory arms & natural camber from the DF drop springs... NO RUB after shaving the inner well.
Will post pix tomorrow, it's 8pm and I'm tired. Lol, just thought to post the cool sparks from the grinder he's using.

I finally get to join up on the thread with many delays on getting my new shoes on them. Well here it is...
Volk CE28N Time Attacks
19x9.5 +22 (235/35/19) Toyo T1R
19x10.5 +22 (255/35/19) Toyo T1 Sport
No rub in the rear after shaving it flat. Thanks to Tony "the fender guy" located in Granada Hills, CA.
Thanks to VDMTom and YogiFTLC for answering all my fitment questions.
Factory arms all around, don't think I need Megan camber arms... I like the battle stance and real happy with my set up.

After looking for the longest time I finally came across a deal on some wheels.
Niche 20" Milan
Front 20x8.5 245/30/20
Rear 20x10 275/30/20
Fallen tires, tpms, wheel locks and mounting.
I'm going to drop the car on tanabe 210. Only question, of many, will the rear be ok or should I get 20x10?
Offset 35 front 40 rear
Your thoughts?

I have 275 in the rear as well, they scrape an awfull lot... Quick question, does anyone know where I can go in socal to bore holes in my wheel in order to fit my tpms... The usual location won't work since they won't fit flush on the wheel, and I have to use a 90° valve stem

As far as your issue on making holes, I would head up to Harbor Freight and buy one of those step drill bits for $10 and bore holes yourself. If you dont feel comfortable, a machine shop would do. Maybe if your lucky, you just might find a tire shop that does that for you as well. Multiple options my friend... just gotta be determined to get the job done.
