Do they clear the control arm at lock? I have 18x9.5 +43 RS05RR'S sitting in my living room and don't want to install them if the fit sucks

There is another thread for 18x9.5 xD. Maybe there are more people on that threat that have that spec than on this thread where they are mainly 18x8.5 :P

Probably better to post your questions and answers there so that people with the same issue and that spec rim will be looking in the right area

Ok, everything fits PERFECT with no rubbing issues. Just put them on yesterday.
18x8.5 and 18x9.5. (235/40/18, 255/35/18 respectivley)
Lowerd on TRD springs

No rubbing at any moment, miles of clearance in the rear from the suspension... I MIGHT be able to sneak in 265, but im scared it will rub the sheet metal as the 255's JUST sit behind the metal. I woul be worried in heavy cornering were the wheel digs into the well that the rubber would contact the metal with 265. My only problem with 255 on a 9.5 is that the leave a little bit of a lip and i prefer rubber to be perfectly flush with rim... It looks awesome anyways. In front i dont think i can go bigger than 235. I can barley wedge my finger between spring and rubber... Its that tight, but absolutley no contact in full lock and extreme cornering. All in all i am extremeley happy. Havent done alignment yet, ill post up the results when i do
