When I did some searching a few days ago, the 18" MRR GT1's were lighter than the 18" OEM's.

But most modders go with 19's, so how's that compare to OEM 18's?

Talked to MRR in southern Cal this morning. For the IS350 19's they are recommending 35 offset in front w/8.5" width and 45 offset in rear w/9.5" width. They said the problems with brake clearance on the IS350's was with 20's only.

So is the 275/30/19 the preferred rear tire choice with the MRR GT1's?
