Default IS250 Wheels

I just bought a 2010 IS250 RWD and I'm currently looking for this wheel.

I just want to be 100% sure that this model only comes in 18" and that it does indeed fit the IS250 models.

If anybody knows where I could get a set shipped to Montreal, please let me know, I've been searching the local ads (craigslist and kijiji with no luck)

Thanks in advance everyone!

Welcome to Club Lexus. Those wheels are nicknamed "Lobster Claws." They're pretty expensive new, so expensive you're better off buying aftermarket wheels. If you go to Sewell Lexus' website and register as a CL member they give us a discount.

I know they're pricey, but that's the set that I want. I'm obviously going to get them used, it's just a matter of finding a good set.

I'll sign up to Sewell today.

I saw them on that site as well, I was wondering if it's a legit place to buy wheels.

As for the size I found this info on CL:
18 x 8 + 45mm front
18 x 8.5 + 50mm rear

I'll keep my eyes out for a good deal, I wanted to make a WTB thread, but because of my post count I can't.

used is your best bet. New price is ridiculous

I figured that much, I just need to find a used set locally or within driving distance, which is the hard part...
