I've moved your thread into the Wheels subsection and suggest you read this master thread: https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-t...d-pics-577276/

I’ve got 18x8.5 +30 with a 235 40 18 and it fits pretty flush I rolled the fenders just to be safe and put a 3mm spacer to get it closer to flush at the top in the rear since the shop said they didn’t want to adjust my camber and it’s on bc coilovers

Nice set up, and thanks for the input do you have any problems at all with the fitment, and how much did you lower your TL?

No problems at all it was perfectly fine no fender rolling on tein s tech springs. Then I got bc coilovers and decided to roll them just in case and it had no problems on the way to the shop. I’m not sure exactly how much I lowered it though. The only problem it may have at that height is it may hit the fender liner on a big bump but I have never experienced that cause I keep my suspension pretty stiff.

What about a different wheel setup

I was thinking of doing 19x8.5 +35 with 245/35R19 will that work too or not?
