^depends if you're lowered or not and what tire sizes you're going to run. if you're lowered, you'll certainly need to roll your fenders, but whether or not you rub depends on how stretched or not stretched your tires are. i say run a 225/35/19, maybe even a 235/35 could be fine if you're not slammed

Just run 215/35 and you'll be good. If not comfortable with stretching run 225/35, you will just have a hair more fender mods to do.

sorry, fsport springs while do technically drop your car it can not be considered 'lowered' the minimum springs you want are eibach 250 or go with the lowerer ones like H&R/stech/tanabe DF210's (not the nf but the df)...

Ya know I would like to see that done on a step lip wheel that have to be reverse mount. Like meisters. Reverse lip is way easy in comparison.

no offense MV but That GS you have reminds me of a mexican car in CA. Just remember, it IS possible to go to Far. Its like people who wear their pants hanging off their ***. It's not cool to walk around with them literally around your ankles.

quick question

car will be one megan EZ coils, and some 18x9.5 +15 offset wheels on a 2006 is250 awd. not sure about the tires. i have a set of 215 45 18's in the garage i can stretch if i decide to use these.

would it fit? or would i need to do major fender work?

please let me know.. planning on pulling the trigger on these wheels i found.

thanks!

go with 215/40 instead and and you have to pull the front, the rear should be rubbing a little.
