Hey guys, I was going to be purchasing motegi sx5 18x7.5 wheels for my 2003black is300. here is a pic of the wheels.![](http://www.tirerack.com/images/wheels/motegi_race/swap/motegiracing_sx5_bml_ci3_l.jpg)
I am wondering whats the largest tire size I can put on my car w/o having any rubbing problems. I am currently thinking about doing 235/40/18 all the way around. After I intall my new tire and wheel package on my car I am going to drop my car about 1 to 1.5 inches. So I wanted to take that into consideration as well. Any advice would be great.

You and your 5zigens lol. I like the industrial racing look of the 5 zigens/ kazeras. But for me its more of the mod, clean lines, kind of thing. ![Stick Out Tongue](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/tongue.gif)

Well after putting much thought into it. I decided to go with a totally different wheel concept. I really like these Tenzo DC-5s in the bronze or black variation.
