I assume these aren't factory wheels.

So offset will determine if you'll rub or not.... OEM 18s are 18x8 last I checked, and we use 245/40/18.

Depends on offset. I put my 20x10 +30 in the front to see if it would fit and it fit flush in my opinion.

OP.
I will offer this to you, and any other member here on Club Lexus.
Without saying who in an open forum as not to offend any of the great vendors here, I have an extremely good contact on wheels and tires what I have shared with many members here and off my Dodge forum that has saved them HUNDREDS of dollars!

If anyone wishes to discuss this please PM me for details and for God's sake be somewhat polite- lol. Can you believe I get msgs just saying "Give me your discount source" or something like "get me the best deal on X" or " I want to pay this price for X, hook me up!" which needless to say I don't even reply to!

I am NOT a seller or in any way affiliated with this company and swear on my own life obtain ANYTHING in return for sending folks to this individual. I simply don't believe in paying retail for anything and being a former Marine Corps First Sergeant like taking care of others in every fashion. This is just one member with a very gracious and great customer service oriented sales connection that I am willing to take care of others with. Thats it, period.
