I got same wheels and suspension. Definitely no rubbing. Tires on rear are only 265's. Need to run 285 or wider to rub. I run a 10 mm spacer on these and still no rubbing. I'll post pics when I get my camera back.

Why are people posting pictures of rims that never appeared on Grand Touring Zs in the US?

Although I dont have a picture of them, I have lowed mine with the OEM Rays. They do not rub. The car looks absolutly awsome when it is lowered about 1" all around. I used TVS1 and I love it.

I was looking into getting a set of these until I read that the rear 19x10" wheels weight 29 lbs a piece! I think this is accurate. They also look a lot different w/o the Brembos behind them. I ended up getting 18" nismo wheels.
