am dropping off my car to the body shop on the 16th for fender/paint work before I fit my wheels and I had some questions I could not find with research. Any help would be appreciated!!

Wheel specs:
19x9.5/10.5 +25
225/35 F 245/35 R

1. What tabs for the front and rear do I need to trim/cut to fit without rubbing? Any pictures?

2. I have megan rear camber arms, but only one set. Do I need both as seen in the picture below?



3. Do I need adjustable front ball joints in the front?


PS-This is not my first time fitting wheels on a car, but this time around it's on my daily so I want to be sure I don't have it rubbing on every single turn.

What about rears? Any tabs need to be cut back there?

Hi guys..

just got IS220d with winter tires and am thinking of getting summer set of wheels... choices are limited. New from Lexus they cost $4k, which is crazy... so I was looking at some good used ones.
I found these OZ Ultraleggera 9x18, 5x114,3 ET35.

Can I run these? What tire sizes front/back? Thanks!

19x9 19x10 +21 all around. I initially have 19x9.5 10.5 +35 all around. How much of a difference will it make? Thanks

0.3"

meaning 19x9/x10 +21 will stick out 0.3" more than 19x9.5/x10.5 +35.

1. roll + pull, shaved fender tabs
2. 225/35-19 + 245/35-19
3. doesn't really matter if you're going to be running low offsets and stretched tires. ride quality will suck, period.

Can I fit Vossen CV2s with 20 x 10.5 all around +15F/+25R? If so what type of fender mods would I need? (I would be dropped on Megan Ez coils)
