hey guys Just upgraded my daily to a 2006 Is350, I also own a s2000 and big into the s2000 scene ( will post pictures on the welcome thread later) anyways...

My question is i have a friend with a set of 18x9.5 +40 Nt03+m that he will let go dirt cheap. i just wanted to know if that will clear the brakes in the front I plan on running +25mm adapters in the rear and im already on BC coilovers. but do not plan to go low or crazy flush as my GF and i both will be driving the car at least 250 miles a week... any help would be great.

Awesome! by any chance would you sell the rpf1s?

Wow interesting to know that 9.5 +15 would clear IS350 brakes. Do you have any issue with rubbing while turning? Do you have to relocate the bumper tab and roll fender whatsoever??

Hmmm offset and wheel width may have a correlation to brake clearance, however, hub pad or "disc" size determines if it will clear or not. "X" offset and "X" is only a small portion of the info you need. The front is350 wheels do need a pretty high disc size to clear those large calipers.
