Default Will 09' IS-F wheels fit GS350 AWD?

Hi, I'm curious if a 09' IS-F OEM wheels would fit my GS350 F-sport AWD? Waiting to pull trigger on a set of used ones... On paper IS-F wheels have the same size as the F-Sport RWD but some say they don't fit due to the larger brake caliper of 4th Gen GS350. Thanks a lot for sharing your opinion and experience!

I would like to know as well.. do you have a link to which ones you are talking about? I thought IS only had 18" wheels where as the GS350 F sport has 19"

IS F comes from the factory 19" staggered. The IS F-Sport wheels comes 18"

wheel spec is the same, but the calliper will hit the wheel, so you will need spacers to solve this problem. this is on gs300h which uses the same calliper as the 2008-2011 gs450h.

rear is no issue

I wonder if 4th Gen has smaller caliper that will fit this ISF wheels. Also what kind of spacers did you use? thanks!

gs300h f sport seems to have to same calliper as the normal gs350.
gs350 fsport has bigger brakes, but that doesn't mean it doesnt fit.



so you might need a 10mm spacer to clear the space ( i haven't use it myself yet) so it might requires even a 15mm.


i am sure that it will fit all 4th gen GS with spacers.

You're absolutely right. So yesterday I tested mounting the ISF rims on my GS and it worked with a 8mm spacer. Very likely 5mm will work as well.

BTW, what's the max spacer that can be used without changing to longer bolts?
