Wheels are 5x114
I believe the front's are 35 offset and the rear 38.
When I have two passenger etc on rear seat accompanied with passenger front on well on highway when I get a bump I hear the rear rub again the outer fender (the part that people usually roll) but makes no damage to tire or car its self, you just hear it rub when you get a hard bump.
And in the front when you turn in about 90 degree angle it rubs against front wheel well plastic which i got a heat gun to push the plastic a little bit in to get rid of this problem. I remember another member on the forum with 20" doing it as well.
Hope this helps

Since the IS350 are RWD, they're using the rear to calculate speedometter. The 275/35/20 diametter are bigger than stock so the speedometter will be inacurate. If your speedometer reads: 65 You're going approximately: 68.87. Here is the link for tire calculator: http://www.discounttire.com/dtcs/infoTireMath.dos
