Default oem rear wheel on the front with 255 width with a spacer. any problems???

Currently using stock oem stagger wheel set up.

19x8
19x9

want to know if i use a spacer on the back wheel, can I put it on the front?

and would a 5mm or 10mm spacer work better?

the reason I ask is that I can pick up a set of rears and would prefer to run a square setup without ahve to use 245 width across the board. I would like to use 255 on all corners (the stock size of the back tire)

thanks in advance for anyone who can help



ps. i saw this https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...the-front.html already, but it didn't really provide me with a solid answer.

I did a search of the forum but didn't find anything (if someone has a link greatly appreciated)

15mm all around on 2012 wheels on stock tires still have a tad of room

Your stock rims have a +45 offset in front and a +55 offset in back. A 10 mm spacer in front will work without rubbing (and without changing your oem scrub radius).

Ugh! You caught me!

I'll try to check this weekend. I have a stock 2011 rear rim sitting in the garage needing to test.

Will test and report back...
