i would like to get some help in sizing rims for my is300 please, i am buying a set of works vs-xx 17x8 +47 and 17x9 +47 i would like to know whether they will fit on the car clearing the brake caliper and not hit the inner fender. would it fit without any modifitcation?

Those will fit fine. Are you on stock suspension? You may rub a lil bit on the rears....but if you are lowered at all you should be just fine.

It will sit perfectly fine front and back, even if you slam. i run 18x9 & 18x10, also slammed with pulling fenders in the front, back running neg 4 camber. it sits perfectly fine. so with your sizing, i think there wouldn't be a problem.

Can you ask your dealer if they will sell center disks?
(my local rep won't, what's the point of getting 3 piece wheels if you can't get replacement centers.. wtf...)

I need two 19" centers - VS-XX (R) disk - gold.
If they will sell the centers, I will give you my contact info.

Just to let you know.
VS-XX with too much offset isn't that nice looking.
These are +43

Here are my VS-xx with +21 offset, sometimes I wish I had even less!

you can pull, chop and camber to make anything fit. how is that even relevant. useless post of the day

those should fit fine. 225 tire up front possibly 245 tire in the rear

a quick fyi, whether a rim clears a brake caliper depends on the spoke design not necessary offset and size. for stock brakes i would talk to the dealer possibly run the standard Adisk up front and the deep rim ODisk in the rear. any big brake would require a higher disk type

if youre open to other size options another easy set up could be 18x8 and 18x9 +38 offset. step up the rim size and the lower offset help bring the rim a little further out closer to the fender.

You might have issues with the front wheels rubbing against one of the suspension arms. I know that the 2IS 17" wheels needed a spacer to clear. IIRC, the specs are 17x8+45. Due to the larger diameter, the 18" 2IS wheels fit with no spacers required. The rear wheels (17 or 18) didn't have issues.

I found some pics of the same wheels w/ the same specs. I don't know if the owner needed spacers up front, but here are a couple of his pics.

Yes Rey I was running the same size and offset with 225/40 up front and 245/40 no spacers. My rear fenders are rolled.
