i dont think those wheels will fit inside the wells even with stretched tires. those offsets r way too aggressive. let me guess, those wheels come from a g35?
hmm now that i think about it, i've seen +22 9.5" setups, so another 4mm isn't that much more. try it out and post pics!

Offset Question.... So confused
What does it mean when you see a rim that say 20x8.5 with 18, 30 or 38 offset?? Which one will fit our IS250? And the same specs for the 20x10's

The higher (positive) the offset the closer the hub is to the outside of the wheel. Zero offset is when the hub is in the center of the wheel. See attached.

i had +35 offsets in the front and needed 5mm spacer to clear the brakes. but for an IS250 it should be fine
