Default 06 IS250 20.95 / 20x11 ??

i dont know if this will fit but here is what im planning to get ....

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=313472

2006 IS250

offsets are 38 and 41 , 20x9.5 / 20x11 ... i know there is fender modding for it to fit but my question is will the tires have to be stretched out ???

tires size on there is 245/35/20 fnts 285/30/20 rear ... maybe the rear will have to be stretched to what size ? will this be a good idea ? or im better off getting better fitment for the car ?

will not fit with those tires, you will need to put 225/30/20 and 255/30/20 to even make it work

A 255/30/20 is a pretty crazy stretch. One that most shops cant do. The barrel will be slightly exposed making it very prone to blow outs. Im not sure you want to go that route.

Just go to a body shop and tell them to slightly pull the rear fenders. With those offsets listed, the pull shouldnt even be noticeable to get the wheels to fit.

If they dont know what you are talking about tell them you literly want them to pull the metal out alittle to give you some more clearance. They should be able to do it without having to repaint your quarter panels. Make sure you agree on a price before they start though.

Just wondering, what's wrong with laying rims on the ground like how he did?

No im not saying its wrong as the owner of rims you can do whatever you want with them, BUT if your gonna buy rims from someone it would be nice to know that they treat them as best as possible.

Kokorokubari kikubari (thinking of others first) = this means nothing here but its a good thing to say
