Will those wheels fit? START HERE.
#4217
i wouldn't consider spacers in the rear.
1. the sidewalls for a 245 or 255 will be upright on a 8.5"-wide wheel.
2. to run spacers to effectively reduce the offset of the wheels, you'll need to run stretched tires. on a 8.5"-wide wheel, you'll need run at least 215 for starters.
i would recommend starting with the standard +1 sizing for the 2is: 225/35-19 + 255/35-19.
if you really want to run spacers, 5mm is about it until you have to modify the fenders for tire clearance.
those will not fit.
1. ISx50's run 5x114.3, so those won't bolt up without adapters.
2. even if they could bolt up, you'll need to run stretched tires due to the widths and aggressive offsets.
look elsewhere for something that actually fits.

Hey CL!
Im thinking about going with Linea Corse LC818s for my is350 and on wheeldude.com they only come in
19x8.5 +30
19x10 +38
I'm also going to lower my car on BC Coils to just cover the wheel gap and I was wondering whether or not this would work, would it rub, would I need to roll my fenders, and if they do rub how bad would it be?
Thank you! Any input would help.

But for your question, those specs are very aggresive on our cars, the tire sizes you chose are perfect and will be necessary. Extreme stretch on the front but you can do it. You will need to do the whole package of shaving your fenders down, pulling your fenders (you'll probly need a pretty aggresive pull). I had my fenders pulled for my offsets and they aren't nearly as low as yours and I barely clear. On top of that, you'll for sure need to shave out the bumper/fender tabs located in both the front and rear fender well. It all depends on how much you pull really, but after that it also matters on how low you want to go. I know you say coilovers but are you going slammed? Or mild drop? Or tucking tire?

Oh wow interesting setup. I'm interested in the end result if you choose to go with it.

I live in so cal and the streets and freeways by me are a bit bumpy, so i want to be able to have a good stance, not too slammed, but a little more than a mild drop. I'm looking for it to be flush with the fenders or a little tuck. Not too sure yet.
These are the rims that the guy is selling to me. I just wanna make sure it'll be able to work with the IS. I don't mind fender rolling and pull.

Those are some serious offsets! You will have to run some serious neg. camber or else they will stick out more than an inch. Im running 10.5 +22 with a neg. camber of 3.4-3.7 which really runs through tires. You have another 22 mm's that you will have to adjust for depending on how low you want to go, (im sitting at one finger gap). You will need a good pull on your rears. The same goes for you fronts. Did these come off a nissan 240, g35? Those offsets would be aggressive on those cars, lol.

Those wheels are nice though I like the color. Anyways, if you are willing to pull and modify your fenders I'd say go for it. Just keep in mind you will have camber. idk about ^^^ threefive0 ^^^ but I have practically the same offsets, slightly more aggressive, and I surely don't have -3.7 camber. I have -1.9 which is still something but nothing to freak out about. It all depends on how well you pull and shave/roll your fenders really. You probly will need to add camber arms unless you do a huge pull but there's only so far you can pull it without fracturing paint in the quarter panel. The fronts aren't too bad, it's just the back that I'm afraid is to aggressive on our 2IS. But like I said. Enough pull &/or camber will make it work.

I would go with 255/35. 265 is a little too beefy unless you wanted to. If you go with 255 you should be fine with natural camber and if you pull then you should have no worries if you don't go lower than 1-2 finger gap

Not necessarily. 265/35 will not be a stretch on those rims so as far as it being 'easier' I don't think it'll make much of a difference. It's just personal preference at that point. If you use 265/35 I'd definitely roll but you shouldn't have to pull. It'll naturally pull itself slightly when you roll it.

Yeah I'm in SoCal too. Freeways are not that bad but could be better haha.
