Question on center bore on rims
 
I have an 02 Lexus is300 with a center bore of 50.1, and I wanted to get some Varrstoen Es1's; the problem is, is that they have a center bore of 73.1
Would it matter if I got rims that had the same wheel specs, but had a bigger center bore?

Your IS300 should have center bores of 60.1, not 50.1. If you do get the wheels with the 73.1, you should consider getting a set of hubcentric rings. Find a retailer and give them your specs, they should have them ready as it's a common size. Without these rings, people have experienced slight vibrations, some have not. They also help align your wheels to mount them easier. Hubcentric rings are commonly available in polycarbonate and aluminum.

Could you explain how the sizes work? Like would I get a 60.1 hub centric ring for a 73.1? Or would it be the other way around?

it'll be something like 73.1-60.1

even if thats backwards, its pretty obvious what you are going for...
