No issues, I'm running 235/35 front - 265/30 rear - I don't rub, scrub, nothing. I know its nutz and I was worried at frist but that are perfect size & offset + tire setup for the 2IS imo.

Looks amazing! But i guess im still too new with offsets, but you are running a mid 30 offset but you are still getting a good amount of lip on your wheels. I see guys running low 20 offsets still getting the same amount of lip too..What am i missing here? Are you running spacers or anything? Cause you rears look pretty much out to the fenders. Educate me!!

Its all about the right disk spacing. I'm running R disk up front for the BBK. In the rear I'm running A disk in the rear will also allow for BBK. If I was to go with a O disk in the rear then my offset would change to +24mm. So the lip would stay in the same place but the center moves +or- 10mm. It just depends on the disk.
I really need to give the credit to TrendyTodd a CL vendor! He picked the offsets. I was nervous
