Default IS350 Rims & Tires On A IS300

I have an extra set of 2006 IS350 wheels and tires would they fit on a 2001 IS300?

Go with a 235 or 245 width on the rear and you should clear. Or go to my.is to see what others have for tires on their sets.

245 is stock IS350 rears, so it fits fine.

On IS350s:

on 17" alloys, rears are 245 stock

on 18" alloys, rears are 255. I assume you have the 18" rims.

I venture to guess that 18s are common in sunnier areas, and 17s in the snowier areas. I didn't see any 16s on any 1IS here in cali until an ohio car was traded in.
