Default Question about wheels

I have a 98 es300 and am looking to change the wheels out. But my lack of basic car knowledge is not helping. So i was wondering if someone could tell me if some OEM wheels like this https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=333312 would fit my car without being to much of a pain in the ***.

Thanks,
Tim

Default Should work

Tire tire diameter is fine.. the only concern I would have is the offset of the wheels... with such a positive offset the rim *might* rub on your strut. I would very highly doubt it though.

I can't necessarily say I'd advocate different tire sizes on a FWD car... not saying it's going to hurt anything, but it'd look a little weird IMO... I think the rears might be a little too wide, as Shep said, maybe rubbing on the rear...

Maybe try and find two pairs of front wheels?
