Wheels and shocks/springs are in. Need to figure out the tire part now. Would appreciate a little bit of help with the decision making:
Size: 18x8 (F) +38
18x9 (R) +24
Shocks/spring: stock Supra Bilstein / stock supra springs. (might do the gixxer_drew suspension if I am not satisfied with ride quality as I want the ride to be closer to stock)
I will run 15mm spacers for the fronts to get it flush.
What size tires are best for my setup? Thanks.

Would 18x8 be good for all the 4 wheels?
2 tires are still good they are 225/40/ZR18 I guess I would put these in front.
What would you guys recommend for the rear tires?
offset is +40.
Stock shocks/springs for now but will eventually drop the car.
Will this be okay?
will this look good?

Hey guys i just picked up some 19x9.5s for my SC300 with a +35 offset.
Now i know ill have to roll my fenders, based on looking through this thread as much as i could it looks like ill be ok.
Anyone else running 9.5s in the front?
My car is stock, nothing done to it, no drop, no big brakes, etc.
Seems like ill be looking for a 275/30/19 or maybe i can get away with a 265/35/19

I'm going to be running some wheels in these sizes:
18X9.5 +14, 18X11 +11
Now I was thinking of running a 235 F and 265 R
My fenders are rolled right now in the rear but my fronts have no modification done to them. I need to know how extensive my fender work will have to be to run this setup.

awww man with 19" im hoping to stay away from camber, im looking at 245 in the front and 275 in the rear, if narrower tires can minimize the camber by all means ill go for the smaller tires. what should i do to not run negative camber?
