My mistake, I forgot to mention they were 5mm more aggressive than the stock 17" offset... which makes it the exact same offset as the stock 18x8.5 rear on the OEM lexus 18"

(Plus even if my wheel were 5mm more aggressive than the OEM 18x8.5, I am running 5mm more on my spacer as well so that means you will be fine with that offset too right?)

If you look at his pic #6, you can see he is less aggressive than mine. Also I bought my spacers off someone who ran the spacer on a set of OEm 18" and basically it looks the same as mine, no rubbing, no fender mods needed.
