Question Wheels help please....

I have a 99 GS300 and want to put oem 2012 IS350 18x8.5 wheels up front. Will they work without issue? The offset is 50mm I believe. I want to put them same size all around 18x8.5. I do not understand what offset is and how it impacts diferent Lexus cars when interchanging wheels. Please help!!

Thanks,
Rock

If the offset is +50 you should not any problem fitting the wheels.

Question wheels

I actually don't know about + or - offset on the factory 2011 IS350 wheels. All I know the front is 18x8.5 50mm offset, and the rear is 18x8 45mm offset... I do not know if this is positive or negative. How can I find out? I currently have the GS350 wheels 18x8, on my 99 GS300, but want to move to the 18x8.5 50 mm offset front and back... Anyone know for sure

Thanks,
Mark
