19x8.5 with ET +32
Looking at 19x8.5 with ET +32 allround on Is250.
Does anyone have this setup and if so any fitment issue, i've got DF210 springs which is 1.2" drop allround i think.
Appreciate urgent replies

The offset is a little low, and in combination with the lowering kit the tires would probably rub on the outside fenders. You would probably need to roll the fenders to make to the application work without any rubbing issues.

Well the difference is 8mm which is about 0.315". However, the wheel is 0.5" wider than stock so .25" more outside and .25" more inside. So you add the 0.315" to the .25" and the wheel will be 0.565" further to the outside than your factory wheel. Given the lowering kit the tires would most likely rub in the front when turning and when passengers are in the rear. You would need roll the front and rear fender lips.

If i don't want to roll the fenders, what would be the ideal offset? I know this is subjective but lets go over this.
Rear: 19x8.5 with +30 - SHOULD BE NO RUBBING (right?)
Front: 19x8.5 with +40 - SHOULD BE NO RUBBING (right?)
(+32mms are off the table)

The lower the offset the further to the outside of the vehicle the wheel will be. So 30mm is even more aggressive than the 32mm you originally asked about. Yes, 30mm will rub. The 40mm will not rub on a bone dry stock Lexus IS250 RWD, but since you've lowered it 1.2" there may still be some light fender modifications needed. With a 40-45mm offset there may be a chance you could get away with no modifications but to close to say for sure.

Ok so the front i need ET +40mm to hopefully not roll the fenders.
The REAR though at the moment on +45mm (current wheel 225/40/18s) has a big gap that can fit a small fist through. Are you sure +30mm in the REAR will rub?

Update: have ordered in 19x8.5 with ET +35mm allround. The rear should be fine just a little worry about the Fronts.
I have to decide before the tires goes on the wheel but will be looking at the rims only before deciding.
