not if you run the right profile tire, you have to compare rolling diameters

Hello my fellow lexus owners,

I've been going through all the different threads and have made a conclusion on the wheel size, width and offset I'm going to get.

TE37
19x8.5 +35 (front) 235/35/19
19x9.5 +30 (rear) 265/35/19

Plan to lower the car using BC coilovers, 40-60mm.
Just want a reassurance from peeps to make sure I don't need to do anything in terms of rolling fenders/cut/shave to make them fit.

Thanks in advance.

Jsjc you are going to have to go down to a 245/35 to not mod you fenders or go to a 255/30.

TrancEpimp you have to pull the rear and pull the front. Tire sizes are good. Also pick up a camber kit to get more negative camber. And mod the bumper fender tab up front.

front will clear no problem with 225/40, and rear run 245/40 and shave a until it clears. which would be about half the lip on the inside of the fender. you wouldnt have to shave it all the way down.

ya i ran a 245/40 on my cr kai's which was a less stretch but more than enough tire. you can roll but that rear lip is stiff and it would scare me for some one to crack the paint when rolling it.

easier to take a angle grinder than find some one that is good with a roller.
