Touvan, If you change brands of tires in the rear, they probably won't rub anymore. The Bridgestone RE050's are a very wide 275 and extremely square on the sidewalls. They are probably anywhere from a 1/2" to 1" wider than a Toyo T1R. Just an idea. Looks great man!!!!!

I do not know what the offsets are, Iforged does not release them because they are "custom fit", plus i acquired them from a 350z owner and they fit perfectly beside the rear rubbing issue. He told me one factor might be the tires. Currently the tires are the Bridgestones RE050 and supposedly they are extremely wide.

touvans, where are the wheels rubbing...in the back i am thinking? Do you know if all 19x10's will rub, or does it depend on the rim, 275 tire, or both? I am about to order new wheels tomarrow 19x10's in the back w/ toyo t1 r's , but am worried about rubbing. Does anybody else know if i should have a problem? I'll try doing a search as well.

It's not gauranteed but for sure will help but the tires i have on are extremely wide, and the Toyo T1's are supposedly thinner on the corner sidewall by 1/2" to 1". So you should be good.
Also make sure your offsets are just right so your wheel doesn't stick out too far.

i guess the only other option is to vinyl it, unless anyone else has suggestions.

I was so close to doing the headlights after i was done with my tails but the night vision capabilities was what concerned me.

They look hott!!! Especially when their spinning. The clearance between the caliper and spokes are so small i can't fit my pinky between there, i'd probably say 3-4mm.
Currently the only issue that i'm facing is that the rear tires are barely rubbing the fender edges, so i must either get the fenders rolled or send the rear wheels in to set the wheel in a little more, which would mean i would sacrifice lip. It wouldn't be that much of a difference, just half an inch, but it's still lip!!
more pics down the page.
