Just buy another set of the oem grille and send it to a local body shop if they're up to the challenge they'll do it.

Here are my 18s (Enkei raijin). Probably one of my favorite wheels. Unfortunately parting out the car soon so wheels have to go first

Talking 18''

Here are my chromium black XXR 527s, 225/40/18 +35 all around on Megan EZ street coilovers. Coilovers are almost maxed out to bottom. I don't know, but I cant seems to get a good picture of these wheels or maybe it just looks alot better in person then picture.

Thought of getting a set of 18inches te37, was wondering front 18X7.5 with offset 30 and rear 18X8.5 offset 40 will the fenders rub? Will the rims be flushed with fenders?

Definitely not on both counts. You'll need spacers on the front and rear to get close to flush, probably 1" to 1.25".

Hi Guys,

I'm looking to add the factory 18" wheels on my 2008 IS250 AWD. It would be 4 of the front wheels which will make it all 18x8 wheels, 60.1mm hub bore and 45mm offset.

Will these fit my car without spacers or anything? My car is not lowered and I don't plan on lowering either. What size wheels would I need to get so that the AWD system doesn't get effected?

Thanks!

Looks great! May I ask what offset and widths are these?

I am torn between these or the LFA rep 18x8 et38 found on eBay.
