BTW celiman, that fitment is pretty much what I would call PERFECT. Can't wait to see it.

on the front you will need a 235/35 and the rears a 265/30.

i'm basically running the same setup and those tire sizes have worked out great for me

Default will this clear supra tt calipers?

http://losangeles.craigslist.org/sgv...033853275.html he said they got a +35 offset. I've been reading a lot about fitment. And it just doesn't seem clear to me... Everyone has different experiences.

Judging by the size of the tires he is offering they are probably 19x8 or 19x7.5.

With those size rims and a 35 offset the wheels are going to be sunken in quite a bit. What kind of look are you going for?

Can any one post pics of their wheels on their cars that are around 255/45/18 size front and rears 40+ offset…
I would like to see how that would look with out rolling or pulling the fenders on a lowered car and if its still manageable to drive, thanks….

how would a 19x9.5 +40 and a 19x8.5 +35 look with some 275/35/19 R and 245/35/19 F look on a lowered SC?

Time for me to get some new wheels, I found a set of 18x8.5
What offset should I be lookin for? I want the same size tire all around, dont have the budget for a staggered setup.
My SC is lowered about 1.5"

K, I'm going to pick that kit up.

I got my wheels test fitted. They are Tenzo DC-6 Version 2's, 18x9.5 all the way around with a +25mm offset.

nice.... are you running spacers on the rears? 10mm for the rear should look aggressive.

I'm not. But I do have 7mm spacers lying around. But I'm going to put the tires on and see how much it rubs. I might be able to get away without rolling my fenders.
