Default what lexus rims clear BBK

hi im planning on getting the BBK from the LS 400 and i was just wondering what stock lexus wheels clear the BBK or the supra TT calipers beside the LS400 wheels. for example would the 06 lexus gs300 or gs350 5 spoke rims clear the calipers and are there any other ones that might

I'm wondering the same thing. I've got 07 IS350 wheels and I want to get Supra TT brakes if they fit(or LS400 brakes).

It's not everyones style, but I have a set of OZ SuperTurismo 17X8 that clear Supra and LS4 brakes. Theyre not aftermarket, the centerbore is 60.1mm.

if they dont fit, just buy a small spacer. It'll solve your clearance issues

Most oem lexus rims wont clear them. IS350's and I believe the similarly sized GS wheels need spacers.

^ shouldnt need a spacer like everyone sayed if you do its like 5mm at most... im using a ISx50 rim as my supra TT brakes clearance spare and it clears.

Try to find lexus ones first.. if not look at junk yards for the non-lexus wheels. Goodluck I didnt have this info when I was looking a while back so it sucked!! =P
