I'm in the market for a winter wheel/tire setup for my 2013 awd gs350 f sport. I searched but did not find to much, what are you guys running? Post pics and specs please. I'm looking to drop down to 18 wheels.

Lots of good stuff here https://www.clublexus.com/forums/gs-...threads-8.html

You can see what i am running (3rd gen GS 17's).

On your car, you can do minimium 17". RWD has to do minimum 18".

Winter tires for 17" rims are typically much cheaper.

I'm running OEM 19 wheels with 225/45R19 as my winter set. Was going to minus size to 18's but came across a set of OEM 19's at a steal which easily makes up for the price difference of tires between 18's and 19's.

The size is 2% bigger in circumference than stock 235/40R19, and the 225/45's was specifically chosen for the narrower width to give better traction in snow and the taller sidewall for better pothole protection in winter. Absolutely no rub with stock suspension, though the front tires just barely clears the front side of the wheel well(read: not the fenders, but the inside wall, just above the F-sport brake vents) in the front when the wheel is turned about halfway.

My winter wheels setup is OEM 19's with summer tires...

lol... I'm totally not helpful with this post. Just bored at work. Live in SoCal, so it's winter when it's below 60 degrees.

Same here, my fsport 19s are the winter setup, have 20s for the summer, lol

I live in NJ and the 19s with AS did just fine.
