Will This Set Up Work On IS300 ?
Front
18x8.5 with +37 offset / Tires 225/40/18 or 215/40/18 depending on fitment problems.
Rear
18x9.5 with +43 offset / Tires 235/40/18
This is going on a 2001 IS300. Also will have any rubbing issues with this setup?
Thanks in advance for any help.

You will absolutely have rubbing issues. Probably both front and back. From the sizes...seems like youre buying a used set of wheels that were on a different type of car...cause I don't think any wheel shop would recommend you buy those sizes brand new
