I was doing some research, and both the GS 350 & GS 450h uses the same 4 pot front brakes (correct me if I'm wrong). The only difference when comparing wheel size is that the 350 uses 17", while the 450h uses 18".

I'm currently trying to figure out a winter wheel/tire package. If the 350 & 450h share the same brakes, then is it safe to assume that 17" wheels will clear the 450h brake caliper? I've had 2 people tell me that 17" wheels won't clear because of the 450h caliper, I need to go 18" or larger. So I'm a little confused here...

the 17s 3gs wheels will fit over the brakes. the problem is having high disk wheels. the overall diameter of the brakes are big enough to disallow 17" wheels to fit over

just checked. the front brake rotors are 13.1" in size. usually brakes under 13.5" setup should be ok for 17s. larger than that and you might need 18s

i hope i wasn't one of those who said 17s won't fit? if so, sorry @_@
