I apologize in advance, I do know this is covered a million times. I have read and read and read some more on here. But I haven't found my exact answer. I have a 2001 is300 that im about to lower on tein s techs. I'm currently running 19x8.5 225/35 +35 and I need to know if ill have any issues running 17x8 225/45 +46 with the new springs.i Also I apologize if this is in the wrong forums. Thanks guys
Or will 18x8 +30 be better? If so what size tires?

im still trying to figure out this wheel fitment stuff myself, and ive been asking a **** load of questions to other members.
From what they tell me you can run 18x8.5 +30 offset all around with a 215/40 tire. Thats what i planned on doing since i dont want to have problems with my rear fender..

Iam no pro at wheel fitment but to my understanding +50 is the stock offset to our cars. If u have +46 ur rim should not be an "aggresive" fitment. U may have to roll ur fenders to give u that extra spaceeing so u dont rub. i have 18x8 +44 and i had no issues getting my rims to fit. with the tires i would run a 225/40 jus so u dont have the meaty lookin tires with a low car. my opinion of course so thats up to u. im running 215/40/18 in the front and 235/40/18 in the rear jus to give u an idea. Another thing ull have to consider is how low ur goin to go. Neg camber is a ***** to the inside of ur tire some recomendations to fix that would be adjustable UCA's for the front and FIGS mega arms for the rear. Jus a reminder im no pro so do ur research ive jus read alot and thats my understanding. and my car thats jus for example since i know that works lol aka its mines.
