2012 awd is 350
Hey guys I have a AWD 2012 is 350 on H&R springs. Ive been looking for some wheels but I'm not exactly sure what specs to run, I haven't seen very many awd 350's on aftermarket wheels. I have seen a couple that run 18x8.5+38mm or 18x8.5+35mm I'm not really sure what I should go with. Im not looking for insane fitment as I drive it all year round in the Minnesota winters. Just looking for better fitment then the stock 17's, that being said I am open to any recommendations you guys may have!
Thank you in advance!

went with 18x8.5 enkei ts10s. I believe the offset is 35. From what I understand, you just want to make sure you're clearing the front brake caliper on these is350s. I've read that its more than just offset, but the wheel/spoke design also plays a factor in the clearance.
18x8.5 enkei ts-10s +35 offset and f sport springs/shocks gave me perfect fitment without scraping or being too low to go over speed bumps and such. has my AWD 350 riding at a sporty RWD height.

Thank you very much for the feedback! I have also heard the same thing about clearing the caliper, I was originally going to go with RPF'1s. Im just a little nervous about them clearing with that spoke style, I also feel like they are a little over done. What are you running for your tire setup?

235/40/18 all around. michelin pilot sport all season 4s
I would look around and see if anyone else is running rpf-1s on an is350 without wheel spacers.
Fitment Industries site is a big help for stuff like this too. Shows fitment pics and gives info on wheel spacers/ride height and such - all specific to your vehicle.

Appreciate the feedback I have been looking there quite a bit, I think now I am going to go with Kansei Tandem's. I don't think I will have to run a spacer to clear the caliper with these. Thinking of 18x8.5+35 with what you said for tires more then likely as I've seen that set up a lot more now.
Thank you again! Much appreciated.

you may end up having to buy new lug nuts depending on the wheels you choose. i also run hub centric rings.
