Default Fitment question

I may have jumped the gun when buying my wheels but they are already shipped so I’ll cross that bridge when I get to it lmao.

I went with
F: 19x9 +32 w/ 235/35/19
R: 19x10 +35 w/ 275/30/19 and maybe a 5-10 spacer
They are Esr CR5 and Indy 500 tires
2018 is300 2.0t RWD

Does anyone foresee any issues I may run into? stock suspension for now but I plan on running down springs until I can buy a 3p air system

Not sure if this helps but I’m running 19x8.5+32(235-35) and 19x10+42(265-30) with RSR downs and have zero issues

Any problems with rubbing? How much clearance do you have on the inside of the wheel?

Looking to do an 18x9.5 et 40 square set up with 265 tires. Anyone know if that will fit? I have a 2022 IS 500.

Hello everyone just needing some insight from the wheel experts. I want to buy a set of wheels that are 19x8.0 +40 square was wondering if anyone is running anything similar. Will I have any rubbing issues? Will it clear the front caliper?

Hey guys, new to the forum but I've been reading here since Sept when I got my 3IS. I Have a '19 IS300 F-Sport AWD and wanted to run a wheel spec and tire size combo past the experts here to see if I'm clear...

I'm looking to go with a squared set up of 18x9.5 ET35 on 255/35 Conti DWS-06+. The car will be lowered on RS-R Downs. I know I'll have to stay with a more narrow tire like the Conti over a beefier Michelin but other than that I think I should be good. Anyone know otherwise or see any pitfalls with the above specs?

Thanks!

I have a 2017 IS200t and am partial to these rims
GTC01RR | Enkei Wheels
but only for the most concave "rear face" version.

Given their specs, will the rear face ones fit my car in a square setup? If so, which wheel will fit?

If no, does anyone have a squared setup with very concave wheels on all 4 corners?
