Dealer says G-Spider alloy wheels don't fit on IS 250 AWD
I just got back from my local Lexus dealership. I am looking to get a 2008 IS 250 AWD with the 18" G-Spider Alloy wheels, but the dealer is telling me that those wheels are only for the IS 250 RWD and IS 350. I looked in the brochure and could not find any fine print that indicated a restriction on these wheels for the IS 250 AWD.
Does anyone here have an IS 250 AWD with 18" G-Spider Alloy wheels?
Thanks

They make 2 different G-spiders. An 18 X 8 -45 and an 18 X 8.5 -50. The GS uses the 18 X 8 -45 on all four. The IS uses the 18 X 8 -45 on the front and 18 X 8.5 -50 on the rears. The SC430 uses the 18 X 8.5 -50 on all four.
