ChrIS250 fitted 19x10.5+22 in the rear which is a lower offset is mine. I will make em fit without "grinding" my fenders cause I refuse to. I don't mind a lil rubbing. kThxBye

Your car is sick! Carbon fiber in all the right places. You can't go wrong with any of the wheels as long as you go authentic!. I also have a set of gunmetal TE37's in my garage!

I'm going to try to go to meet you and all my fellow FL members! I don't know if I can get my tires and coils on by then tho. Im expecting to get it on in early March (I'm still a part-time student) So if I do go I'll be out there Type Stock

Lol thanks but I'm really not a baller...just a poor college student
Poor college student huh? I never had a c-note in my pocket when I was in college. Come to think of it, I never had a Lexus when I was in college either. Then again, had I not spent all my money on beer I might've had all those things... Nice ride and wheels nevertheless.

its not rubbing you have to worry about...its drivability with a 10.5 in the rear with +29 offset. Hope you plan to stretch some 245 tires on that wheel. In order for you to not rub in on that width you will need a wheel in the high 30s or low 40's offset. Front you can go mid to high 30s to to not mod anything.

I dont know many people who have tried running 350z/G35 wheels in 19s or 20s on a 2IS without cutting stuff to make it happen.
