Newer Lexus Wheels for the SC400
I have a 1994 Lexus SC400 and would like to know if any of the newer Lexus wheels, i.e., IS250 would fit my car without modification, i.e., fenders, spacers, etc. I like the IS250 wheels (18") since comparable to the Lumarai Kya Lexus Wheels available in 17, 18, 19, 20 inch wheels:

Any advice on the fitment of an old car with newer OEM wheels is appreciated. Thank you!

Depends on a lot of things. Are you lowered? What sizes are you wanting to get? There's a huge Wheel/Tire fitment thread stickied at the top, you can look through there for people running sizes that you want.

I have a stock, unmodified 1994 SC400. I usually keep cars original. I like the IS250 wheels (18") appearance if that fits; would like the Lumarai Kya Lexus Wheels (17") if no newer Lexus wheels fit the SC400. Just want to bolt on the newer Lexus wheels and tires, i.e., General AS 03, something to fill the wheel wells good, and go!

Take your time and research.
The Wheel fitment thread, while daunting, is well worth the read to learn about all of the options.
After much study and many choices to vet, I ended up on the 19 inch Kya wheels.
But, the car is lowered on Tein Coilovers and using a staggered setup. No fender rolls or pulls were needed with the offsets Lumarai used and did not need any additional spacers as the fit was flush enough for me.
I do not think that 17s will "fill" the wheel wells depending on the tire selections. Lowering the car allows you to select tires that will not change the circumference of the wheel/tire and will maintain speedometer readings.
Good luck on your search and ultimate choice.
