Default New to me Wald Streifen S13's, looking for input on tire size?

Hey everyone. I just got a set a of new to me Wald Streifen S13's. Front rims are 19x8.5 + 42 and rear rims are 19x9.5 + 38. I plan on lowering the car 1.5-2.0 inches after I put the rims and tires on. I am looking for input on what tires sizes would fit and not have any rubbing issues, especially after I lower it (thinking of KW3 Variant's). I have an '07 IS 350. Any input would be greatly appreciated!!! Thanks everyone!!!

Yes he did! My car is having some sort of battery draining problem that no one can figure out... I dont plan on making any more investments until the problem is solved. In addition in my financial situation as a college student, i decided to sell the wheels

Matty was a great buyer, had a good time hanging out for a bit

i feel like i have some kind of connection to these wheels. j/k.

they look fantastic and in much better condition now than when you bought them, sleekbrian. Matty2768 is very fortunate to end up with a presentable, finished product and avoid the history of and the drama surrounding these wheels.

They look sweet, you may need 5mm for front and back to get out closer too flush

Yes they were. I bought them from him when they were in need of refinishing. I had them powdercoated and straightened, but then decided to sell them due to financial reasons.
