^^ OP please do some research first you will be able to figure it out and as mentioned above you need to know the offset since that is what matters when fitment is involved

you'll need some pretty gnarly fender work/neg camber to fit those wheels on a 3G TL.

there is a guy in the black market selling that same set right now, PM him and see what he had to do to make them fit on his.

^ yea too much work imo for your first set up .... + 12 offset up front you would have to run like -3 camber and pull fenders while running a 225/35 max tire size

go for a more conservative offset like +30 up front

sp if i were to do 19x9.5 +30 it would be fine. but will it clear the caliper. Right now im running 18x8 tenzo type m not sure of the offset with 235/40 but i feel that the wheels look small and there too much space between the tire the fender

^ i am running a 19"x9.5" +28 offset up front on my car and it clears the brembo caliper but obviously a different rim style but i would think they should clear ok with what you have noted.... you will be flush up front and need to run a 225/35/19 tire....

whats your plans for out back what size rim??

and you didn't need to add spacers or roll the fenders. Do you have a pictures on how the set up look from different angles i just want to do 9.5 0r 9 all around but for it to clear the calipers and give it a wider look. also hopefully have a small lip on the wheels. i just like that style. but obviously the original ones run some good cash

he didn't need to add spacers with the sizes/offsets he's running. he did roll (cut) his fenders for added clearance.

i'm running 19x9 +25 FRONT and 19x9.5 +25 REAR on 225/35/19 tires. fenders rolled. no spacers. just to give you an idea.
