** THIS IS STILL A WORK IN PROCESS. I AM AWAITING ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AS I AM NOT KNOWLEDGEABLE WITH WITH TIRES. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO HELP FILL OUT INFO ABOUT TIRES (SEE 225/50/18 FOR EXAMPLE), PM ME **
OK, there are WAYYYY too many threads of people asking "will this fit?". So here is your ONE STOP source about tire, rim sizes and if there are rubbing issues. Got a question whether or not it will fit, check HERE before you ask in THIS thread! Again, please keep this on topic. ** MODS: please delete any posts that you see that do not pertain to this thread
This thread will be updated more and more as people contribute to this. So check back if you have questions about wheels.
Basic Info:

- How to measure tire thread depth with coins: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tiretech/techpage.jsp?techid=51

- Will it throw off my speedometer?
circumference = pi*d
circumference = pi*(wheel diameter in inches*0.0254+2*tire width in mm*aspect ratio/100000)
circumference = pi*(16*0.0254+2*205*50/100000)
circumference = 1.921 m
Then work out the new circumference, divide old by new, multiply by 100 and that is your actual speed at the indicated speed of 100km/h (then convert to imperial, since I'm not sure if the formula works in feet/miles)
- Wheel and tire calculator
- Hubrings
What is hubrings and what does it accomplish?
60.1 is the inner diameter (Toyota/Lexus hub bore all have 60.1)
73.1 is the outter diameter (In this case, your wheels have center bore of 73.1)
The hub centric rings primary job is to fill the gap between your aftermarket wheels and the car's wheel hub bore. 73.1 - 60.1 = 13.0 mm is the gap.
Why such gap? Because each vehicle manufacture wheel hub bore are difference, hence all Toyota/Lexus wheels are 60.1 mm so it will match the car hub bore exactly. Aftermarket wheels wants to sell their wheels to a wide market of car makers so they make a universal hub bore to fit as many vehicle as possible. That is why you need a hub centric rings.

- What are some recommended spacers and what do they do? H&R or Ichiba (www.ichibausa.com). Spacers reduce the positive offset, i.e. push your rims further out to the fender. Putting a 10mm spacer in the back on a +40mm offset, makes the offset effectively +30mm. (courtesy of tobeit)
- When are lug extenders needed? If it is 5mm or less spacers then you can safely use the OEM hub studs. But any spacers that is longer I would replace the OEM studs with extended studs. Safety first. (courtesy of lammydi)

+35 to +45 for the flush look - rubbing may occur if you are lowered, and may result in having to roll the fender. Also depends on your tire size.
+45 to +48 isn't recommended for a rim width higher than 8, it will result in rubbing and/or hitting the strut

I get about 5-10 private messages a week asking me about aggressively stanced wheel fitment. If you have questions about...
1) How to flush/poke your wheels
2) How much stretch can you get away with
3) Rolling and pulling fenders
4) Maxing out stock camber bolts etc
5) What offset/width would be best for an aggressive fitment
6) And so on...
I'm not very arrogant at all, but I am very knowledgeable in this field of "hellaflush" or flush fitment. If you have ANY questions, post your questions here and I'll be more than happy to help you out. Since this is a rare breed and comes with a lot of negativity, I'm hoping those negative comments will be excused in the hopes of less clutter and nonsense in this thread. Only people wondering about aggressive wheel fitment on their Gen 5+6 should chime in. Of course, my knowledge lies within the Gen 6, but I'm hoping Asian and the others with the Gen5 may contribute. I have a host of users here that can attest to my help, and I'm definitely willing to extend this knowledge to you. Ask away!

- How to measure tire thread depth with coins: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tiretech/techpage.jsp?techid=51
Example: 215/65/15
- "215" is the width of the tire measured in millimeters from sidewall to sidewall. This tire width is 215 millimeters.
- "65" is the ratio of the height of the tire's cross-section to its width. On our example, 65 means that the height is equal to 65% of the tire's width.
- "15" is the width of the wheel from one end to the other. The diameter of this wheel is 15 inches.
- Stock Bolt Pattern: 5x114.3 (5 on 4.5")
- Will it throw off my speedometer?
