Not a big fan of the wheel choices for the RCF. Does anyone know the specs of the RCF wheels and if an ISF wheel set would fit properly? I think the 08 ISF wheels might look good

Any photoshop gurus around?

the RCF wheels (19x9 19x10) are a lot wider than the ISF wheels (19x8 19x9). Performance is going to be hindered by putting less wide tires on it

Too small...

Better off buying some lighter weight JDM wheels..

Which wheels do you have ?

Does anyone know the offsets for the stock RCF wheels? I could of swore I saw +50 for the fronts but dont know the rears...

To the OP, why not sell the ISF wheels you have and then go aftermarket? I've seen some nice deals for JDM wheels in the 2,000s range with shipping in the vendor marketplace : https://www.clublexus.com/forums/clu...ay-nyc-22.html I would love to put a set of D9R's on my car

Most staggered sets for sale in the 5x114.3 bolt pattern are 19x8.5 and 19x9.5.
I think that those will work if using the tires it comes with.

To my knowledge the Fronts are 50 and Rears are 41..

Each wheel should have a stamp on one of the inside blades

I just have an ISF but thinking to sell it for an RCF... but I really like the ISF wheel design vs the crop of RCF wheels.

Thanks for the info everyone. I probably would go with aftermarket wheels for the RCF

I'm ordering some custom Volks TE37 SL in 19X9.5/19X11 +28/+45 in Mag Blue. Hopefully won't take 4 months to get here like my previous sets, but will be worth the wait regardless.
