Whats needed to fit 19x12 345s?
I have a set of zo6 spyders 19x12s 345/30s and need to know what all i need to do to get them to fit..im guessing bfh'ing inner wheel well and fender roller is a must. Do i have to have tubular lca's? And what about the bumpstops?

it'll really be trial and error - some here have put them on with little to no work, others have had to beat and modify their cars all to hell
I can guarantee you'll need to roll the fenders and get an adjustable panhard bar. Have a small sledge hammer ready too. I'd also suggest planning a few hours - get the rear on jackstands, put the wheels on, and let the car run. Stop, remove, and see where you need to beat or adjust the phb... repeat as necessary.

I can tell you from experience that it will mainly come down to which brand tires you plan on using, the wheel offset and if you want your tires sticking out from under the rear quarters or not. There are a few tire manufacturers that produce tires that run really narrow and not true to their advertised size. Nitto is one of those manufacturers.
I HAD to install mini tubs in order for me to achieve the look I desired while using tires that are true to their advertised width while retaining my lowered ride height. I'm using 345-30-19 Kumho Ecsta XS KU-36 on 19 x 13 wheels, coil-over suspension and offset lower control arms.
Some people raise or retain the factory ride height, slap on some spacers, then throw on these wide tire and wheel combos and have the tires sticking 2 or 3 inches outside of the fenders and call it good. I personally think that looks hideous.

I ordered bmr adjustable oncar.lcas and phb as well as their springs. Ires on it currently are michelin ps2a. Will probably get new.ones in a couple months but different brand. Arent nittos usually narrower? I would like the tires to be flush..im not going to run spacers either. 59mm offset on rears

Yes 59mm offset and im making 1/4" spacers to help clear everything and fronts are 18x9.5s with a 40mm offset i think it was.
I did not order offset lca's...from the looks of it tubular ones should be alright? Hopefully theyll be here tomorrow and ill let you guys know
