Default 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 with 275 30 19 rear??

ok i put another post up for lowering now im looking for 19s and im going with these
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/19-LE...08815464QQrdZ1


now 225 35 19 and 255 35 19 is what i was goign to go but seeing the new F model has the 225 40 19 front ill do that and a 255 35 19 rear which will look more even. But has anyone gone with a 265 35 19, 275 35 19, 285 35 19 or 275 30 19 or 285 30 19 in rear?

I would like the fattest tire in the back i can stuff on there with a eibach 1.4/1.0 drop

I really dont think you should put those on you car! Im not saying you have to go out and buy $3000 HRE's but please dont put ebay wheels on a lexus! You dont know how well they are made. I would never trust "Ruff Racing"! think about it?!?!?!?

2 of my buddys run these wheels for over 2 years on their rx8 and 350z no probs thats why i want to go with them. Im not looking to spend over 2k. Granted 225 40 19 and 255 35 19 go for about 900-1k.


also wheelmax.com has some nice ones. i just want a 5 star design.

a lot of it is going to depend on the offsets of the wheels. With the proper offset, I think 255/35's will definitely work in the front. In the rear, you could probably get 285/35's on without issue (again, if the offsets are kosher.)

I've put a set of 245/35/19 on the front and 275/30/19 on the rear. But I'm not sure of the offset of these wheels.

al503 is right. It depends on your offset and wheel's width. You should check with wheels manufacturer and have them tell you what fits.
I have 275/35/19 on the rear but I also have a very aggressive offset.

What would you consider an aggressive offset?

widest you can put in the back is 285/30R on a 10.5" wide wheel +53 offset

I would not go anything wider than 235 in the front because the front wheels pivots so while 245/255's may clear when the car is going straight it may rub when turning at speed.

I just put on some Volk GT-7's with the following specs and have no issues with rubbing.

19x8.5 Front +36
19x9.5 Rear +46

245 40 19 Front
275 35 19 Rear

I will be lowering it on some coilovers soom but i dont forsee any clearance issues.
