Hey guys!

Need help with this wheel fitment. Someone is selling a set of Varrstoen ES2, anyone got experience with them?

They are 19x9.5, offset 12, 5x114.3 all around. Would they fit and look nice on a 2016 IS350 Fsport (everything stock).

Agree with above comment. They would stick out like crazy on the 3is. Offsets are way too low and 9.5" in the front itself is too wide.

I figured.. the guy said it would fit lol.

What do you guys think of the wheel brand and design?

& what size and offset would be best for the car? I'm a noob at this

Note that I don't want to lower the car, as it's still on stock suspension.

Concur that the wheel will stick out with that offset unless you run fender flares. As for the width 9.5 isn't too wide. I'm running 19x9.5 (235/35/19) +25 offset and have no problems.

If you're not lowering the vehicle run a 35mm/40mm front 40mm/45mm rear with 235's front 255's rear.

I still recommend you going the RSR down springs. Sets the car off very well and also your handling on cornering.

PM with all your questions.

Would running 8.5 in the front and 9.5 in the back mess anything up on AWD.

As long as the overall diameter of the tires are the same, it's ok. Stock is 8 and 8.5 on the F-Sport.

No problem at all. OD can't be off by more than .3 Are you planning on running 19" or 20"? I can recommend you the correct tire setup.

The only time it rubs is if I'm going down or up a driveway and my wheels are turned all the way to the left or to the right. I'm on RSR Half Downs in the rear and SAGE 25mm drop in the front..

What size tires are you running in the rear? Any fender mods?

With 20" I've seen a lot of people run 235/30/20 front 255/30/20 rear. With the OD it is off by .5 but people still run it without any issues.

Please feel free to PM with all your questions.
