Like previously mentioned, the 235/35-19 and 265/30-19 sizes work on your factory wheels but most matching tire sets in this size do not have the correct load index for your IS-F. The stock load index in the front is 93XL and the stock load index in the rear is 96XL. The Invo in size 235/35-19 has a 91XL load index and the 265/30-19 Invo has a 93XL load index. We do not recommend running a tire with a lower load rating than what comes factory.

With the Eibach Pro Kit springs installed (0.7" front - 0.3" rear), tire sizes 245/35-19 and 275/30-19 will work great.

Hey sorry to bump this thread but would it at all be possible to fit these on an ISF w/o the need to roll/shave fenders?
19x8.5 +32 with 245/35/19 front
19x9.5 +35 with 275/30/19 rear
According to the chart it looks like I will but can anyone confirm? I also want to lower my car :X

The front will be tight but shouldn't need any modifications if you stick with a tire model that runs smaller in size. Tires are just like shoes, some brands run larger than others even in the same size.
The rear is aggressive and will require a roll or neg. camber.

Hey thanks for the reply! I actually bought some Hankook Ventus V12's (245,275) from you guys about a week ago and are currently mounted on my OEM wheels. Do the V12's run a little smaller? Thanks again.

Thank you for your support and yes, Hankook tires typically run smaller in size.

Work Varianza T1S - Spec question
Hi,
I need to spec out sizes for some Work Varianza T1S wheels.
I would like to run 19" with a 245/35/19 and 275/30/19 set up.
Which rim sizes and offset would be recommended on a stock suspension set up?
Sorry, I tried to post a Work Wheels spec sheet, but too new to post URLs. Thanks in advance.

Below is the recommended wheel/tire fitment guide from discount tire direct that has been posted in many different threads. As far as I know, every combination here works on the ISF without rubbing of any kind. According to below, in order to run a 245/35R19 front, you could use an 8 inch rim (+29to+59 offset), 8.5 inch rim (+35to+52 offset), or a 9 inch rim (+41to+46 offset). In order to run a 275/30R19 rear, you could use a 9 inch rim (+39to+65 offset), 9.5 inch rim (+45to+65 offset), 10 inch rim (+52to+65 offset), or a 10.5 inch rim (+58to+60). I listed 275 as fitting on a 9 inch rim, because I am running 275/30R19s on the stock rear 9 inch rims right now without problems. With all of these wheel widths, the narrower the wheel the greater number of offset options. Also, though it might fit, I would not recommend putting a 275 on a 10.5 rim. Of course I have my bias as I hate the stretch look. I like fitting the widest tire possible on a rim, not the the reverse.
FRONT
WHEEL WIDTH OFFSETS WIDTH OF TIRE
7.0 +16/+65 225
7.5 +22/+65 225/235
8.0 +29/+59 225/235/245
8.5 +35/+52 235/245/255
9.0 +41/+46 245/255/265
REAR
WHEEL WIDTH OFFSETS WIDTH OF TIRE
8.0 +26/+65 225/235/245
8.5 +33/+65 235/245/255
9.0 +39/+65 245/255/265
9.5 +45/+65 255/265/275
10.0 +52/+65 265/275/285
10.5 +58/+60 275/285/295

I know you stated 245 front and 275 rear, but you can definitely go wider if you like...at least 255/295. Having the right offsets are critical the wider you go.

If you were to go with a 20 inch wheel, the offsets would be the same for each width. Most of the tire widths would still be applicable, but you would need to check with an expert first. I assume the less the sidewall, the less room you have to vary tire widths and still seat the tire properly.
As far as tire sizes, 245/30R20s are about 25.8 inches tall. For the rear, 275/30R20s are about 26.5 inches tall, while 275/25R20s are about 25.4 inches. I would opt for the latter personally, as I would prefer a slightly shorter rolling radius vs a slightly longer rolling radius. The stock tires are right around 26 inches tall.
Realize if you go with a 20 inch wheel, you will be increasing unsprung weight/lowering performance...at the expense of a little bling bling. Many prefer this as it does look nice, but personally, I am considering going with an aftermarket set of 18s for weight saving purposes.

Okay so deciding to seriously consider 19x8.5 & 19x9.5 with 245/35/19 and 275/30/19.
Or 19X9 & 19X10 with the same tire sizes
From Work Wheels link above (still can't post URLs):
Would:
19X8.5 +43
19X9.5 +55 be the best set up for option 1?
19X9 +41
19X10 +54 be the best set up for option 2?
Thanks in advance.

As long as you are only planning on running 245 & 275, and not wider, I would recommend the 8.5 and 9.5 inch wheels. They will be a little bit lighter, and I see no reason for the extra rim width running those tire widths. Both sets of wheel offsets you listed will work according to Discount Tire Direct's list of ranges. Just make sure you get wheels with a 5X114.3 lug pattern, not something else by mistake.

You know, if you got the 19x9 front and 19x10 rear wheels, you could run Continental ExtemeContact DW tires in 255/35R19 fronts and 285/30R19 rears. These sizes would be very close to stock, and would give 30mm wider rubber front and rear over stock. The Continental DW's are a great Max Performance summer tire, that have done well in comparisons to the Pilot Sport PS2s, but have a lot longer tire life, and are much less expensive. Having a 255 up front should help kill understeer as well.
So I guess that is my recommendation: 245/275 with 8.5/9.5 or 255/285 with 9.0/10.0
You should be able to fit a 295/30R19 on a 10 inch rim as well. I don't know if it would rub or not though. If it did, it would be minor, and rolled fenders should easily solve it.
