3GS wheel thread
#2177
New Michelin PS4 tyres and lowered 10/20mm on HKS Hipermax GT IV
245/40R19 on 19x8.0 +15 (tyres are too big, had to take heat gun to the fender liners, still slight rubbing on full lock uphill...)
275/35R19 on 19x10.0 +40
Original Wedssport SA67 sprayed silver
I must say the 245/40 is smoother than my previous 245/35 over the rough pavement

Hello all!
Sorry to resurrect an aging thread!
im from Australia and there is very limited information here for wheel fitment as conservative is kind of the norm here!
I have just picked up an 08 gs450h and about to get stuck into some mods.
I have fallen in love with a set of wheels but don't think they will work, they are 19x9.5 +22
The car is my daily driver and I do 1000kms a week so crazy camber and the resulting tyre wear is not ideal
Anyone had something similar work without too much stress??
Alternatively my second choice :19×8.5 +15/+25/+35/+45 – Matte Black
19×9.5 +15/+25/+35/+45 – Matte Black
19×10.5 +22/+35/+45 – Matte Black
Whats the best option?
Thank you sincerely in advance!

19x9.5 +35 with 255/35
19x10.5 +45 with 275/35
The GS450h is a very heavy and powerful car with huge torque, it deserves solid rubber to get the best out of it, use tyres with enough sidewall so they can work properly.

thank you very much for this info. i was wondering that and even almost bought set for cheap price (was thinking of winter set)

Just wondering why you went with such a meaty tire set-up? 40 series, right? With those wheels widths and offsets you're bound to experience some rubbing especially if you haven't modded your fenders.
Here's a recent pic of my 450H running a square wheel setup 19 x 10 +37 (front and rear) and a staggered tire setup of 245/35/19 and 265/35/19. I do encounter rubbing up front but only when backing up and having the wheel cranked all the way to the left or right.

Peter,
Check the link below he lists his tire sizes there.
