Default OEM GSF Wheels on 2016 GS350 F Sport?

Hi. Noob here looking for some advice. I'm hoping to purchase some 2016 GSF OEM BBS wheels for my 2016 GS350 F sport. Does anyone know if this is doable? I saw some old threads on this but still wasn't 100% sure if this is possible. Would be sweet to get them GSF wheels on my car. Any advice would be awesome. Thanks!

I have gsf wheels. They fit fine. Fronts would look a little better with spacers but rears stick out a little bit.

Thanks for the reply @baconRX. That's really helpful. If you don't mind me asking, what size tires are you running on them? Haven't had any rubbing issues?

Rear


Front

One front and rest are rear. If you check some of my threads or post there should be a couple with the gsf rims showing I think.
Front tires are 245/40, rear 275/35

That's super helpful. Thanks Bacon. So confirmed there's no rubbing? And what tire setup do you have?

Thanks for the link AJ. Will take a look at the thread.

I also have a set of GSF rims on my 2016 F Sport. Running a squared setup @ 255/35/40. No rubbing issues

Pretty close so I suppose some spacers should be used. @peasodos what do you think? were your ES rims this close?

Is the first picture of your fronts and the second of your rears? That's actually really close so might have to consider spacers if that's what we're dealing with.

Looks like the wheels fit but your tires are much too wide. Should have use the factory wire widths.

From the pictures it looks like your tires are definitely rubbing, I have used these 3mm hubcentric spacers on my other car and they work great no need for extended studs and 3mm should give you enough clearance.
