Too much for a JZS147?

I was wondering if the following setup will be too much on a 1GS with some fender rolling and pulling. The car will be lowered on Tein CS coilovers. I do not wish to use fender flares.

Front 19x9.5 +0 offset High disk
Rear 19x11.0 +11 offset Super Low disk

Kindly recommend tire sizes as well. Thank you in advance.

With rolling and a pretty hefty pull, and camber maxed out, you might be able to get away with it. BUT, I don't really have experience with the first generation...Tein CS might not be able to get you low enough either.

I don't think you can get the car low enough to pull that off
with the CS. You'll need to seriously stretch tires and max-out
the camber adjusters to make that all happen. Don't forget to
roll the snot out of the fenders.

Just for reference
19x9.5 +0 sits same on fender as:
19x9.0 -6
19x8.5 -12

19x11.0 +11 sits same on fender as:
19x10.5 +5
19x10.0 -1
19x9.5 -7
19x9.0 -14

and so on...

I met a guy with a JZS147 in Japan who had 19x9 -5 and 19x10 +5, with maxxed camber, slight pull and slammed so the rim was less than 1/2" from the fenderDont take that as gospel though, i didnt see the offset stickers, i just saw the car (which looked sweet)

You can do it, just not with those coilovers. For reference, my old gs:

those are

18x9 +13 (with a 6mm spacer so +7 effective)
18x10 +7

The rear were maxxed stock camber bolts and a very slight pull, as in you couldn't notice the pull at all) So yes, i think those sizes will defiantly work as long as you get the car low enough and run the right tire.

It's hard to see but the front could have come out another 15mm or so.... so i wouldn't even worry about the front, just add camber.

19x9.5 +22 / 19x10.5 +22

How about a 19x9.5 +22 / 19x10.5 +22? Going with Tein Flex. Thanks.

the lower your car goes, the more it will camber.
maybe he's saying those coilovers, or the tein cs
won't let u go enough

Just ran a quick comparison on these two fitments

18x9 +7 versus 19x9.5 +0
19x9.5 will be 13mm more "outside"

18x10 +7 versus 19x11 +11
19x11 will be 9mm more "outside" and 17mm more inside
