Default First Lexus

Hey guys this is my first Lexus a 2013 GS350 AWD So far the car has been great I brought it used with 8500 mile back in December. One thing that is really starting to drive me nuts is this rattle in the seat Belt I plan on getting that checked out at the next service. The next thing I would like to do is put some new wheels on it I'm looking at Rohana RC22 20x9 front 245/35 tires 20x10 275/30 rears. I have read a few post that said as long as the diameter is with in 5% it should be good to go. Is this setup going to work? Thanks for the help

Technical Service Bullitin. All car manufacturers have them. Its a note of a documented common issue with the vehicle. Almost like a recall... But not.

Ok guys I did a tire circumference check at discount tire a 245/35/20 and 285/30/20 would be only .04

Circumference front 84.04 back 83.98
Diameter. Front 26.75 back 26.73
Revs per mile front 753.89 back 754.45

I'm going to run this buy a Lexus mechanic to see if this would work at speeds over 85

Cars with staggered tires will be farther off when the rear tires are wearing out - you wont have an issue.
