Default G-Spider Wheel Question (IS 250)

I see that the G-Spiders come in 18x8" for the front and 18x8.5" for the rears on the IS. On the GS Spiders are actually 18x8" on all four corners. I am going to get an new IS soon and plan on getting the Spiders from group purchase and I was wondering if I could go 18x8" all around so that I could rotate the tires in the future ensuring they will last awhile longer.

Is there a problem with wheel offset that i should be aware of?

Are the stock 18" tires the same size front and rear?


Seeing as I would only be losing .5" of width I don't think it will be a noticeable difference as far as the look goes and it will definitely benifit the tires in the long run.

Whad'ya guys think? Has anybody done this? How does it look?

i don't think there will be problems. the rear might not look as aggressive as 8.5 but it should fit no problem
