Default Will IS300 rims fit on IS250 AWD?

I just bought a 2006 IS250AWD with stock rims & 225/45/R17 tires. After much searching for winter steelies, I am coming to conclusion that they do not exist.

Saw some stock IS300 alloy rims for sale. Has anyone tried these on a IS250? On paper, they sound like they should fit.

Many thanks for advice.

widths and offsets should fit but I would beware of the brakes because they are quite a bit bigger than they ised to be... well at least the IS350, I dont know about the 250. I know those IS300 wheels have a super small disk pad

is350 uses bigger brakes than the is250. minimum 17" to clear i believe, though the 350 comes stock with 18"s

if u want the is-f brakes to work, u can use the is350 wheels, BUT u need to replace the front 8.0 with 8.5 wide, also u need to space out the wheel weights so they dont clip onto the caliper. its a tight tight fit, but it will work.
