its going to have to be some low et so you dont rub inside, but then you still have to remember the extensive body work on the fenders, UNLESS you run so major negative camber, you can probably make it fit with a solid pull.

Thanks Barny! wish I could've made it out to oc this past weekend with you all. But I couldn't find a hotel room for one night. There was a 2-3 night minimum stay, and my gf had to work friday night so it would've been a waste to book 2 nights.

Nice wheel color, that's the first time I've seen them in that particular finish.

Yeah I kinda took a chance on the color since I couldn't find a z with the Bronze. But once I saw the Five:AD matte black lexus isf with these bronze wheels I didn't hesitate to get them. The color changes in the light. I love the color!

ian (spnall4)

your front tires are slightly taller than the rears, do you see any problems with the computer, especially during spirited driving??????

i have a thread in the wheels & tires section, if you can drop by and help me out. im in the process of looking for new front tires.

sorry scott but he said FAT TIRES not normal , lol..

in the back you should not go any lower than 305's , imo i would try to put 315 on there, your going to have to roll your fenders for sure!!!!!!! and im talking about roll it FLAT!....lol.

but if you cant find someone to roll it, and you dont plan on pulling your fenders, then my next option is to shave the fender off.

also what are you droped on and how low do you plan on droping it, bc then your going to have to run some serious camber.

if you got the money to spen then your cars going to look sick after your done, do it right the first time bc if not it will cost more at the end trust me i know....lol.

remember 305's or 315's

I've had no problems with my vdc at all. I ran a square setup with 275 all around and VDC was fine. The 295/30/19 and 255/35/19 both had a diameter of 26 inches so it's just like a square set up height wise. I could have gone with a 295/35/19 but I don't really like the look of the 35 series tire compared to a 30.

305's or 315's

i dont wanna put cambers! (your going to need camber arms so you save your already expensive tires.... you should consider a little camber, but hey its up to you.... but remember this is a aggressive and fat tire thread, so im a little biased....)

yes i will go with BC Coils...but i will just go as low as possible without pulling fenders! (look into function form coils also, since they come with a camber kit, but you dont really care how low you go so bc's will work just fine. )

what do you guys think i have to go with? (you might have to go with a higher offset, to be safe, but screw that if you like fat tires then getthefattestfuk3nentireyoucanfitonyourrim&thenworryabouteve rythingelse)
i dont wanna buy those wheels when i have to pull fenders...!
(why dont you want to pull fender?)
thx for your feedbacks!
just be sure your not second guessing anything, the last thin you want to do is tell your self, you should have gone with a fatter setup!!!!!!

why dont you go measure your car and find out firs hand if it will fit?
